Let’s go inside Bryn Celli Ddu! A remarkable Neolithic passage tomb built about 5,000 years ago to align with midsummer sunrise! 🌅 Look out for the stone pillar inside the burial chamber, perhaps a tomb guardian keeping watch from the shadows!

That’s pretty exciting! Whatever happened to the bodies? Is there any history on that?

Hi David, Unfortunately the burial deposits inside the tomb chamber and passage were disturbed in the 18th and 19th centuries. Early records say human bone was found but don’t give context or quantity. The human bone assemblage from later excavations amounts to 30 fragments of unburnt bone and 611.6 g of cremated bone. More info in table 2 in the article in this link:

According to WP, the mound used to be bigger. It was rebuilt after the excavations, but too small and thus the light at the end.

I wonder, is this the same passage tomb that Tolkien used for the barrow Wights scene in Fellowship of the Rings, and where Derfel and his cohort hid in Bernard Cornwall's Enemy of God?

This mysterious stone was carved in about 3,000 BC. It was found inside Knowth passage tomb in Ireland, and was perhaps used by the Neolithic people in rites related to the fertility of the land. Considering Knowth's solar alignment, it might also be a mobile sundial?

A spiral carved on a stone, sealed in the dark for 4,000 years. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧 Nobody knows what it means. But once a year, the sun still finds it. Around 3,000 BC, a Welsh farming community on Anglesey cut massive slabs of stone and raised a chamber inside a mound. Then they did something extraordinary. They aligned the passage to the rising sun on the summer solstice. Once a year, on the longest day, sunlight threads the doorway and floods the chamber for three minutes. Then it moves on. Inside, they carved a single stone with a tight spiral. One of the oldest carved stones in Britain. Welsh hands cut it 5,000 years ago, and to this day nobody can say what it represents. They gathered there for two thousand years. Then they sealed the chamber and walked away. The mound held the dark until Victorian archaeologists opened the passage and the summer sun threaded the doorway again. 🌅 It still does. Every June 21st, locals walk back to Bryn Celli Ddu and stand at the chamber wall, lit by the same sun through the same stone door their ancestors built. Welsh people built it. Welsh people kept it. Welsh people still walk to it. Help us remember who we are. Help us remember every British achievement. 👇🙏 👉 👈 Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧 Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

Built around 6,000 years ago in Antequera, Spain, the Dolmen of Menga still defies easy explanation. Why does this colossal tomb face a mountain, and why is there a deep well inside its chamber?

Burial Chamber of the Tomb of Seti I : The tomb of Seti I (r. 1290-1279 BC), is one of the longest, deepest, and most beautifully decorated tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Seti I was the second king of the 19th Dynasty, New Kingdom, and father of Ramesses II (the Great). His tomb, (KV17) in the Valley of the Kings, West Thebes, Lucor, Egypt. The tomb is sometimes called “Belzoni’s tomb” after its discoverer. The vaulted ceiling of Seti I’s lower burial chamber represents the firmament and the stars within it. Different constellations from the night sky, including Ursa Major, which is a bull in ancient Egyptian cosmology (right) appear, positioned between processions of the gods. Like the other tombs in the Valley of the Kings, the tomb of Seti I is decorated with various funerary texts, the aim of which was to ensure his successful transition to the afterlife. The tomb of Seti I was the first tomb in the Valley of the Kings to be entirely decorated. The elegant painted scenes and reliefs are of the exquisite quality that the reign of Seti I is so well known for. The funerary texts attested there are the Litany of Re, Amduat, and Book of Gates, in addition to the Book of the Divine Cow and the gorgeous astronomical scenes decorating the ceiling of his burial chamber, simulating the night sky. Architecturally, the tomb of Seti I falls under the “joggled axis” type characteristic of his period. The first series of corridors and descending passageways terminate into the first pillared room, where, in the facing wall, but off-axis, another series of descending passageways cut into the floor of the room lead to the burial chamber. The tomb does feature a number of new and unique characteristics. Along the same axis of the first series of corridors and descending passageways, a doorway leads into a single room. This may have been intended to lead intruders to believe that this was the actual burial chamber. The tomb of Seti I is also the first tomb to possess a burial chamber with a vaulted ceiling. Perhaps most interesting of all is the passage begins in the floor of the burial chamber, descending even further, deep into the earth. It is believed that this was intended to ritually connect the tomb of Seti I with the primeval and regenerative powers of the underworld. In 1821, painted recreations of several rooms from the tomb of Seti I were displayed in the Egyptian Hall in Piccadilly in London. This exhibition, put together by the discoverer of the tomb, Giovanni Battista Belzoni, made an ancient Egyptian tomb available to various members of the public. It captured people’s imagination, and is one of the first monuments responsible for attracting popular attention to ancient Egypt. 🎥© iggs89 (IG) #archaeohistories

Enter the Dolmen de Viera, in Antequera, Málaga, Spain 🇪🇸 The structure is 5,500 years old & is classified as a Tumulus Long Barrow Dolmen. For it’s believed to be a tomb. Lined with Orthostates weighing up to 4 tons. Thoughts: Why would a tomb have a niche in the rear, with a port stone, that allows light to fill its chamber on the spring & fall equinoxes? 🤔 Also view the curious choice for the backing stone of the niche, with what *appears* to resemble a LARGE footprint🦶👀

Tomb (KV9) in Valley of the Kings, Luxor; Egypt. Tomb was originally constructed by Pharaoh Ramesses V. He was interred here, but his uncle, Ramesses VI, later reused the tomb as his own. Tomb is located in Wadi Biban el-Muluk, and is known since antiquity. Romans knew tomb as "Tomb of Memnon" and savants of the Napoleonic Expedition as "La Tomb de la Metempsychose". With some of broadest corridors, longest shafts (117m in total) and greatest variety of decoration, KV9 one of most spectacular tombs in valley. tomb (KV9) is decorated with an extensive number of funerary texts; including, The Book of Gates, Book of the Day, Book of the Earth, Book of the Caverns, Imydwat and Book of the Dead. Following tomb’s ransacking a mere 20 years after burial, mummies of both Ramses V and Ramses VI were moved to Amenhotep II’s tomb where they were found in 1898 and taken to Cairo. Tomb of Ramesses VI seems to have been robbed shortly after his burial. Reports which date at the latest from Ramesses IX's reign report the interrogation of five robbers who took four days to break into tomb. Layout is typical of 20th Dynasty – Ramesside period and is much simpler than that of Ramesses III's tomb (KV11). In Graeco-Roman period, the tomb was identified as that of Memnon, mythological king of Ethiopians who fought in Trojan War. As a result, it was frequently visited; 995 graffiti left by visitors have been found on temple walls, ranging from 1st-4th Century CE. Burial chamber has an unfinished pit in floor. In burial hall a broken granite sarcophagus was found. Roof and walls of chamber are filled with fine images of Ramses VI with various deities, as well as scenes from Book of Earth, showing sun god’s progress through night, gods who help him and forces of darkness trying to stop him reaching dawn. Roof of burial chamber is decorated with a magnificent figure of Nut and scenes from Book of Day and Book of Night. Burial chamber itself is beautifully decorated, with a superb double image of Nut framing Book of Day and Book of Night on ceiling. This nocturnal landscape in black and gold shows sky goddess swallowing sun each evening to give birth to it each morning in an endless cycle of new life designed to revive souls of dead pharaohs. Fragments of a large granite sarcophagus were discovered when Georges Émile Jules Daressy cleared tomb in 1898 CE. Sarcophagus was restored in 2004 following two years of work on over 250 fragments recovered in tomb, where it is now on display. Ramesses VI's mummiform stone sarcophagus was found in numerous pieces. Substantial parts of lower sections of Ramesses VI's sarcophagus still lie in his burial chamber and face (inspect) of which is now in British Museum. Sarcophagus of Ramesses VI, shattered in antiquity, was reconstructed in 2003 CE, from framents found in king's tomb and else where in Valley of Kings. Stone is hard green conglomerate, quarried in Wadi Hammamat, about a hundred kilometers from Luxor in Eastern Desert. Sarcophagus, orginally painted blue, red, yellow and black is stained by ointments used in burial ritual. Carved decoration tells story of king's afterlife through symbolism connecting him with sun god Ra and Osiris. Face on lid is a replica of original, which has been in British Museum since 1823 CE. This sarcophagus was placed inside a granite box, of which two huge fragments remain in burial chamber. Mummified body of Ramesses VI was found in nearby Tomb of Amenhotep II in 1898 CE, and now rests in Egyptian Museum, Cairo. 🎥© bluerococo #archaeohistories

Antiochus I built a fifty meter high artificial peak out of loose crushed rock at the summit of Mount Nemrut to hide his tomb. Modern archaeologists still cannot reach the burial chamber because the stones instantly collapse inward during any excavation attempt. The sheer effort required to create a self sealing mountain makes you wonder what exactly he was trying to protect.
