burnt mounds (mounds, earthworks (engineering works), ... Built Environment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Structures comprising mounds of shattered stones and often charcoal, together with an adjacent hearth and trough. The troughs were made watertight by having been cut into the living rock and/or lined with wood or clay. Locations include Ireland, Britain, and various sites in northern continental Europe. Dates of the structures range from the Neolithic and Iron Age to the early Mediaeval period, with most dating during the span 1900-800 BCE. The shattered stone fragments are thought to be the remains of stones heated in fires, which were used to heat water in the trough for cooking, brewing, bathing, dyeing textiles, or treating leather.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 由土墩與相毗連的爐床和溝槽組成的結構物。土墩的成分除碎石外,也常見木炭。溝槽則由於在天然岩石上挖掘,並且/或者墊以木材或黏土,因此具有不透水特性。焦石土墩所在位置包括愛爾蘭、英國、與歐陸北部許多地點,其存在時期涵蓋新石器時代與鐵器時代至中世紀初,但最大多數出現於西元前1900年至西元前800年間。一般認為碎石塊是岩石在火中加熱的殘留物;當時以此法加熱溝槽中的水,以供烹飪、釀製、沐浴、紡織品染色、或皮革處理等用途。 
Dutch ..... Heuveltjes van vergruisde stenen en vaak houtskool, met een haard en een trog erbij. De troggen werden direct uit het gesteente gehouwen en waren daardoor waterdicht, of ze werden waterdicht gemaakt met hout of klei. Men vindt ze in Ierland en Groot-Brittannië en op verschillende plaatsen in Noord-Europa. Ze stammen uit de periode die loopt van het neolithicum en de ijzertijd tot de vroege Middeleeuwen; de meeste zijn ontstaan tussen 1900 en 800 v.Chr. Men denkt dat de vergruisde stenen de resten zijn van stenen die in de haard werden verhit en die men gebruikte om het water in de trog te verwarmen om voedsel te koken, dranken te brouwen, te baden, stoffen te verven of leer te bewerken.
