Not heard of him at all, have to investigate further. That is interesting, that absence presumably includes cremation as well as inhumation? I just did a quick search and there is nothing I could find on the web . Jaqueline Nowakowski was doing a bigraphy but I couldn't find a mention of that either . Most of these barrows had cremations rather than inhumations but there is small but significant number that clearly had no remains deposited , this is taking into account removal of the remains which also took place .The dating is getting very tight these days and there are patterns appearing that we could only dream of a decade ago .
