This again is a wonderful scene. The singing of the lament by Eowyn was incredible, as was the sight of the body being interred within an opened Barrow, which was exciting to me as an ancient history/archaeology enthusiast. This scene conjoured up images of an 'older' Britain, which was quite peculiar as it combined influences from periods of history millenia apart, with the Anglo Saxon sound of the lament, and the burial, influenced by something far more ancient.
