Err, 3 people "probably" killed by arrows out of 14, does not sound
like a massacre to us. Even if these 3 folk did meet their ends
violently is it surprising they would be interred in the same monument
as other dead members of their "clan"?
CS cairns are funerary monuments, you EXPECT to find the remains
of folk there, whether they died in their sleep or were killed by arrows.
The narrow time frame, now that IS interesting.
