View SW from the rear of Parc le Breos Neolithic chambered long cairn, Gower, Wales, UK: the upright slabs of the passage & burial chambers are visible at the S front (rear L). A Cotswold-Severn chambered tomb with a central passage & two pairs of opposed side chambers within a cairn of limestone rubble 22m long aligned N-S. The bones of some 40 people were found within the tomb. Prior to burial in the tomb, some of the bodies may have been exposed (excarnated) in Cat Hole Cave which overlooks the cairn on the floor of the wooded valley. The cave was occupied by Ice Age hunters, animal bones both from that earlier period & more recent than the Neolithic have somehow ended up inside the tomb. The cairn has been excavated twice & restored.
