The suggestion that cremations represent individuals of lesser social status is consequently questionable. Fortunately, cemetery managers were not generally resistant to cremation. Cremation was impossible because the money needed for wood for the funeral pyre, 300 to 400 rupees, was lacking. The two barrows with middle bronze age cremations both have shallow ditches, interrupted by a causeway to the south. Furthermore, it was clear that the cremation movement needed the full co-operation of the cemetery profession in order to advance its case. Some of the bone, especially the mastoid process of one adult male, showed evidence of cremation. The police was informed only after a day of their cremation. The bones of the three individuals buried in this tomb also indicate cremation. The variations and changes concern the specific grave goods and burial orientations, the peripheral structures and the choice between cremation and inhumation. This barrow contained a central cremation and a series of burials which clustered around the ditch terminals. Again there was one central cremation and a further concentration of burials outside the 'entrance' to this monument. Cooking in a pot involves containment, but in contrast, roasting and cremation are uncontained activities. Among these are volumes commemorating deceased persons which are distributed to participants at cremation ceremonies. The complete lack of evidence of traces of fire inside the chamber indicates that cremation took place outside the tombs. Replacement of inhumation with cremation might suggest stronger connections to spatially explicit resources. By 1939, 54 crematoria had been opened, and 3.5 per cent of disposals were cremations. The data for sheep are less clear because sheep cremations could be aged in only three pits. It might be therefore that only adult cattle were thought suitable for cremation, and younger animals could be inhumed. Again there may have been a central burial, but in this case there were two clusters of cremations. Qualitative changes also occurred, such as the new orientation of graves, the use of ring ditches and cremations. It also describes, in detail, current methods of embalming, cremation, and burial and of the natural process of decomposition of bodies. This impeded the identification in situ of the total number of individuals that had been entombed during the last cremation. Their subsequent cremation took place outside the tombs.
