A HISTORY OF SUSSEX nounced types, viz. (i.) low circular mounds, 30 feet or more in diameter and from 2 feet to 3 feet in height, and (ii.) circular mounds, about 20 feet in diameter and 2 feet 6 inches in height, with a kind of crater-shaped hollow near, but not actually on the centre. From the various remains found in them it appears that the former are probably of the Bronze Age, whilst the latter are Anglo-Saxon barrows. The following is a list of the parishes in which barrows and tumuli have been noted. Most of them are probably sepulchral mounds, but excavations in the neighbourhood of Chanctonbury Ring and elsewhere have tended to show that some of the barrow-like mounds were con- nected with ancient defensive works.
