About: Bank barrow

An Entity of Type: Abstraction100002137, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A bank barrow, sometimes referred to as a barrow-bank, ridge barrow, or ridge mound, is a type of tumulus first identified by O.G.S. Crawford in 1938. In the United Kingdom, they take the form of a long, sinuous, parallel-sided mound, approximately uniform in height and width along its length, and usually flanked by ditches on either side. They may be the result of a single phase of construction, or be the result of the addition of one or more linear extensions to the bank of a pre-existing barrow. Although burials have been found within the mound, no burial chambers as such have been identified in bank barrows. These ancient monuments are of middle Neolithic date.

  • A bank barrow, sometimes referred to as a barrow-bank, ridge barrow, or ridge mound, is a type of tumulus first identified by O.G.S. Crawford in 1938. In the United Kingdom, they take the form of a long, sinuous, parallel-sided mound, approximately uniform in height and width along its length, and usually flanked by ditches on either side. They may be the result of a single phase of construction, or be the result of the addition of one or more linear extensions to the bank of a pre-existing barrow. Although burials have been found within the mound, no burial chambers as such have been identified in bank barrows. These ancient monuments are of middle Neolithic date. There exist fewer than 10 bank barrows in the United Kingdom; examples may be found at * Maiden Castle, Broadmayne and Martin's Down in Dorset; * Long Low near Wetton in Staffordshire. (en)

  • Un bank barrow, detto talvolta anche barrow-bank, ridge barrow, o ridge mound (in italiano si può rendere con cumulo che forma una collina allungata), è un tipo di tumulo per prima identificato da nel 1938. Nel Regno Unito, essi prendono la forma di una lunga, sinuosa collinetta a lati paralleli , approssimativamente uniforme in altezza e larghezza lungo la sua lunghezza, e di solito fiancheggiata da fossati su entrambi i lati. Essi possono essere il risultato di una singola fase di costruzione, o il risultato dell'aggiunta di uno o più estensioni lineari del cumulo sopra un altro preesistente. Sebbene siano state trovate sepolture dentro il tumulo, nessuna camera funeraria vi è stata identificata. Questi antichi monumenti risalgono alla metà del neolitico. Una veduta del bank barrow lungo 180 metri di Broadmayne, nel Dorset, U.K. Esistono meno di 10 bank barrow nel Regno Unito; esempi possono essere trovati a: * , Broadmayne e Martin's Down nel Dorset; * vicino Wetton nel Staffordshire.
