    Abstract:
    Identifying trends is an important element of archaeology, but there is often a lack of regional and inter-regional analyses with regard to the available evidence. This paper attempts to shed light on one aspect of burial practice in Scotland by investigating geographical trends in Bronze Age burials that contain bronze artifacts.
    Notes:
    This is a modified version of the original paper published in the McGill University Anthropology Department Student Journal. Maps have been recreated and improved using freely available data and QGIS software, and some data errors have been corrected. The abstract was also re-written for brevity and clarity. However, the contents of the paper remain fundamentally unchanged, though the total page count has inevitably shifted.
