296 Pyre-Histovic Man in Lincolnshire. 
The Round Barrows belong to the second race of people who 
existed in our County and are cailed the Brachy-cephalic or 
Round Headed people and with this class of people occasionally 
bronze implements have been found as well as the stone imple- 
ments. 
A plate picture of these different kinds of skulls appears on 
page 20 of the British Museum Handbook to the Antiquities of 
the Bronze Age—and it is considered very probable that the 
Brachy-cephalic were the Conquerors of the Dolichocephalic 
people in the early Bronze Age. 
Incompleteness of the circle in the Barrow, points to design. 
Yet neither care nor trouble seem to have been spared in their 
funeral rites. The Barrow was considered to be the habitation 
of the Spirits of the dead. 
An alphabetical list of the places where the Round Barrows 
have been located in Lincolnshire shows how widely these people 
spread over the County.

It is also to this same class of Brachy-cephalic or Round- 
headed people that we must attribute the lines of entrenchments 
in various parts of the County—Honington, Ingoldby, Kingerby 
and other places are examples. .
