The fact that the WKLB for instance was 'open for business' for something like a 1,000 years before being filled in MAY confirm that they were only intended for the special ones and not Joe Bloggs who would have filled it pretty quickly.


There was secondary activity at WKLB around 2400 BC at the latest but it is now considered that that the primary deposits were 3670-3635 cal bc and the last internments 3640-3610 cal bc with a suggestion that primary mortuary activity lasted only 10-30 years ,the chamber was then infilled within a century .
