A golf tee green under a blue sky
This, I think, is all that remains of the second barrow on Round Hill. It seems to have been landscaped into the tee green for the, I assume, cursed 6th hole. 🏺

Mit viel Liebe wurde hier ein besonderer Stein geschaffen. Aber wenn sich keiner mehr kümmern kann, droht irgendwann die Friedhofsverwaltung… #TombTuesday
Der Stein ist (hoffentlich noch) auf dem Blumenfriedhof in Bochum zu finden: www.ruhrgebiet-industriekultur.de/blumenfriedh... #Ruhrgebiet

Black and white image of a 19th century crenallated tower standing on top of a Bronze Age burial mound.
You might have a cathedral @dannykelly.bsky.social but we have quite a few of these #BronzeAge burial mounds around here. This one is beneath a 19th century tower, and when excavated it was found to contain several burials including cremations. The view posted yesterday was from here. #TombTuesday

Bronze age cist and barrow in the Tregeasal stone circle complex - the far west of Cornwall #tombtuesday
Late C15 table tombs at Isel Church , West Cumbria. One is probably for Sir William Leigh of nearby Isel Hall who died in 1484.

For #TombTuesday here is the tomb of Stilicho, the 4th century Roman general... or perhaps it is the tomb of the Emperor Gratian, hiding under what looked to me like a pulpit...
This is one of 3 fairly well preserved megalithic tombs at Liscuis in Laniscat (Côtes-d’Armor) on a ridge above the Gorge du Daoulas. All are built with slabs of local schist and were set in oval cairns. Card by Emile Hamonic in St-Brieuc. #TombTuesday.

The Bartlow Hills near Cambridge - huge Roman burial mounds and the largest in northern Europe!
Originally there were 7, but 4 were destroyed in the 19th century to build a railway, which is now no longer used!
What a waste 😤

A colour photograph showing an arrangement of granite stones, just possible to see a ring surrounding the cairn itself. Set on moorland, the sky is blue with clouds.
Here's what remains of a beautiful cairn, one of several at the summit of Caradon Hill. My Easter holiday plans include time up here this week planning a walk for CAS in July (eek!) #TombTuesday #Cornwall
A black and white painting of the megalithic monument known as Wayland's Smithy, with large stones gathered around a dark doorway and trees behind.
This is my watercolour of Wayland's Smithy, a Neolithic long barrow in Oxfordshire. Legend tells that if you leave your horse there with a coin then the mythical blacksmith Wayland will magically reshoe it.
The original artwork is now available on my Etsy shop here: shorturl.at/jof38

Lligwy Dolmen this large #tomb is roofed by a formidable stone 5.5m long by 4.6m wide weighing an estimated 25 tons, one of the biggest in Britain.
Lligwy, dating from late #Neolithic times, would have originally been covered by an earthen mound.

Neolithic Dolmen at Le Pouget (Hérault, #France). Only part of this structure is properly ‘megalithic’. Actually, the walls are mainly made using dry-stone masonry.

Plan, excavation and finds from the Shangzhaoyao Qin mausoleum, Shaanxi Province.
China's Qin Dynasty buried many people in their mausoleums, but few historical records exist for those of lower social status #TombTuesday
Skeletal analysis shows how the Qin's strict social hierarchy can instead be read in their bones.

Open landscape with a low mound in the foreground against a backdrop of a lake, distant hills and a vast blue sky. A fenced pathway leads to the mound which contains a chambered cairn.
Upstanding up in Orkney’s isles, Unstan mirrors the mountains. With finds dating back over 5,000 years, this chambered cairn was once bare of turf and decorated with patterned stonework. Although this feature is now hidden, the tomb’s presence in the landscape still makes a statement. #TombTuesday

#TombTuesday following a night of incredible lunar exploration & achievement, time for some Neolithic kudos to the builders of the enormous Browne's Hill dolmen in Ireland 😮🔥💪
I visited on a cycling tour - a human scale is essential to appreciate the size of the tomb
