Abstract
Remains of a round barrow were investigated, to reveal its ditch and central primary grave containing a crouched inhumation, small Collared Urn, 151 jet beads including spacer plates, a bronze tubular bead, a bronze awl and two flint tools. A secondary extended inhumation lay in the ditch fill. X-ray fluorescence tests for differentiating jet from jetlike substances are discussed. Human bones and flints are treated in further specialist reports. -- AATA
