Southern is a round barrow that forms part of the Three Howes cemetery, a Bronze Age monument complex located in Yorkshire, England. The barrow is characteristic of the burial mounds constructed during the Bronze Age, a period when such earthworks served as prominent markers for elite or community burials across the British landscape. As one of four distinct round barrows within this designated monument group, Southern contributes to the archaeological record of funerary practices and settlement patterns in the region during the second millennium before the present era. The site remains an important example of Bronze Age mortuary architecture and ritual landscape organization in northern England.
