Evidence of the continuous use of the cemetery over a fair period of time was afforded by eighteen instances of later graves which had cut into earlier burials, and eight instances of still later graves which had cut these, but the culture represented by the grave-goods is homogeneous throughout. The burials were extended, with the head usually to the north, and a large grave was made to accommodate quantities of pottery vessels, up to a maximum of forty and usually from fifteen to twenty.
