Unreferenced date February 2009 A chamber tomb is a tomb for burial used in many different culture s. In the case of individual burials, the chamber is thought to signify a higher status for the interree than a simple grave burial grave . Built from Rock geology rock or sometimes wood , the chambers could also serve as places for storage of the dead from one family or social group and were often used over long periods for multiple burials. There are numerous terms for them depending on the period, design and region in question. Most were constructed from large stones or megalith s and covered by cairn s, tumulus barrow s or earth, but the term is also applied to tombs cut directly into rock and wooden chambered tombs covered with earth barrows. Grave good s are a common characteristic of chamber tomb burials. In Neolithic and Bronze Age Europe stone built examples are known by the generic term of megalithic tomb s. Chamber tombs are often distinguished by the layout of their chambers and entrances or the shape and material of the structure that covered them, either an earth tumulus barrow or stone cairn . A wide variety of local types has been identified, and some designs appear to have influenced others.
