in a cist, with its head towards the north. No. 90, in tillage, pro- 

 duced a large urn rudely ornamented, and inverted over a deposit of 

 burnt bones. No. 91 contained an interment of burnt bones, de- 

 posited on the floor of the barrow : and beneath it was a deep cist 

 containg abundance of ashes and charred wood, intermixed with 

 particles of bone. No. 92. On the floor of this barrow were found 

 the remains of a skeleton, with fragments of a funeral urn, burnt 

 bones, and some enormous pieces of stags' horns. Within a cist, 

 excavated beneath the floor, lay a skeleton with its legs gathered up, 

 and head placed towards the north. No. 93 had, near the top, an 

 interment of burnt bones, in a rude broken urn, with a small cup; 

 also the remains of a skeleton, charred wood, stags' horns, and flint 

 apparently prepared for warlike purposes. The primary deposit was 

 a skeleton, with its head placed towards the south-east, accompanied 

 by a fine drinking cup, richly ornamented, and in the highest state 

 of preservation.' (Plate xviii.) No. 94 was not investigated. Nos. 

 95, 96, 97, 98, and 99 contained chiefly interments of burnt bones. 

 No. 100 contained a simple interment of burnt bones within a 

 circular cist. No. 101 a similar interment accompanied with two 

 black rings of some bituminous substance, and one piilly (?) bead. 

 No. 102. An interment of burnt bones in a cist, with remnants of 

 the cloth in which they had been enveloped. No. 103. A deep 

 circular cist, with ashes. No. 104. A large flat circular barrow, 

 had been previously opened, but yielded the bones of several skeletons, 

 fragments of urns, and a rude instrument made from a stag's horn ; 

 there was also a large and deep cist. Nos. 105 and 106 had been 

 opened by others. No. 107 produced a small interment of burnt 

 bones, with a pin of bone at top, and under it a pile of ashes in a 

 cist. No. 108. A "pond "barrow. Nos. 109, 110, and ill had been 

 investigated. No. 112 is a double barrow, rising towards the east, 

 and somewhat resembling a long barrow, but ditched all round. 



iln nearly all the barrows described in Ancient Wilts, i., 123 (19), 125 (25), 

 125 (27), 168 (93), 211 (24), 238 (9), the huint bones and associated skeletons, 

 formed secondary interments, with primary interments of unburnt bodies 

 below. But, though secondary,the later interments seem in every instance to 

 have belonged to nearly the same epoch as the primary ones.
