Fair enough, that's not historical yet. I was referring to the other 171 already mapped (https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1qiS).

But we tend to map those features with the historic tag nonetheless. I don't understand why you say that they're not archaeological, when they're written about by archaeologists and part of archaeological surveys. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_barrow Like many British and Irish barrows (and maybe other areas, but I haven't looked at those in much detail), they are man_made=cairn, though, just under a layer of soil.

I have added that information to the wiki (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:archaeological_site%3Dtumulus). In Ireland and the UK, I've also tried to tidy up the tags, so there are now no archaeological_site=barrow/ ring-barrow/ round_barrow etc. I've also drawn diagrams of the different types of tumuli and added a table on the above mentioned tumulus wiki page which also shows possible redundant tags. However, long barrow is documented as archaeological_site=megalith + megalith_type=long_barrow. They should all fall into the same hierarchy. This is really my question - should long barrows not also be tagged as archaeological_site=tumulus + tumulus=long_barrow? Even when all tumuli are megaliths, but archaeological_site=megalith + megalith_type=tumulus + tumulus=long_barrow is a bit of an overkill, IMHO.
