In the island of Bute * Professor Bryce found short cists, either within cairns or 

 tumuli, or near the surface of the ground, without external mark. In six of these the 

 bodies had been inhumed, in two they had been cremated. The grave goods were 

 scanty ; in three were urns, two of which were bowl-shaped ; in two were articles 

 of bronze and jet. The human remains were fragmentary, but it was thought 

 that a skull from a cist at Auchantirie had probably a cephalic index above 80.
