Return of the death mound: Neolithic-style tombs are back in fashion after 5,000 years as Britain runs out of space to bury the dead


 

The Soulton Long Barrow in Shropshire is only the third of its kind to be opened in modern times

Inspired by those created by prehistoric ancestors 5,000 years ago, the structure is built entirely by hand

The barrow, covered by soil with wild flowers and meadow grass, will house cremation ashes 


 

죽은 자를 위한 5천년전 무덤 돌아오다:


영국에는 무덤 공간이 부족해 5000년 만에 신석기식 무덤이 다시 유행하고 있다.


영국 중서부 슈롭셔의 웸에 있는 소울튼 롱 배로우 공동묘지

5천년 전 조상들의 무덤에 영감을 얻어 수작업으로 지어졌다.


이 배로우 무덤은 잔디와 야생화가 심어져 있는 흙으로 덮혀있다.

These stunning images show the Milky Way etched across the night sky over a Neolithic burial barrow, which will open this weekend as part of a Stone Age tradition being resurrected across Britain.


 

The Soulton Long Barrow in Shropshire is only the third of its kind to be opened in modern times.


The burial chamber is based on ancient solution to the lack of burial space in Britain used by our Neolithic ancestors almost 5,000 years ago.


Soulton Long Barrow is made entirely by hand using natural limestone, lime mortar and traditional techniques.

Housing ashes inside the structure costs around £750 ($970) for an individual, and £5,850 ($7,590) for a family.


 

The barrow, covered by rich soil planted with wild flowers and meadow grass, will house cremation ashes and will provide a cheaper and more secular alternative venue for funerals, its creators say.
