Bowl barrow 120m north of The Avenue forming part of a linear round barrow cemetery known as the Old King Barrows is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Wiltshire. The barrow is part of the Old King Barrows cemetery, a linear arrangement of round barrows situated north of The Avenue in the Stonehenge landscape. Dating to the Bronze Age, the monument represents the extensive ritual and burial practices associated with the period. Bowl barrows of this type typically consist of a simple earthen mound constructed over cremated or inhumed remains, and their placement within linear cemeteries such as this reflects patterns of organised burial and dynastic succession characteristic of Bronze Age communities in the Wessex region.
