The Annual of the British School at Athens, 1983
The two categories of tomb are defined. Burial practice in Greece from MH onwards is discussed, chamber tombs being established as canonical in LH I, though these are not universal, and cist and pit burials continue. Chamber and tholos tombs occur over a wide area of the mainland in LH II; after LH II, except for children's burials, pits and cists are ...

SETTLEMENTS AND CHAMBERED TOMBS IN NEOLITHIC FRANCE
Oxford Journal of Archaeology, 1983Summary. Chambered tombs of megalithic or dry‐stone construction are a leading element in the archaeological record of Neolithic France, but appear to have been associated with only small, insubstantial settlement sites. This point is illustrated by reference to evidence from West‐Central France, the Paris Basin, Southern France and Brittany.

Neolithic Houses and Chambered Tombs of Western France
Cambridge Archaeological Journal, 2004The Neolithic tombs of northern Europe have often been presented as built in the image of the hous e of the dead. We wish to discuss here the different terms of this proposition in the light of recent discoveries concerning the domestic habitat in western France, whence we draw most of the architectural examples — both funerary and domestic.

Clyde cairns are a distinctive form of early Neolithic burial monument found in western Scotland. However, there have been no detailed investigations of these sites for many decades. Knowledge of early Neolithic monumentality in this region remains limited and reliant on parallels with better-known sequences in southern Britain and in Ireland.

The rock-cut chamber tombs of Labraunda
Opuscula. Annual of the Swedish Institutes at Athens and Rome, 2016The rock-cut chamber tombs form a very small percentage of the rock-cut tombs in Labraunda. The majority of these tombs, situated next to the sanctuary, were studied by Paul Åström in 1950 together with the sarcophagi; two improved from natural caves further from the sanctuary in both directions were found in a topographic survey conducted by Lars ...
