Description

This scholarly collection brings together 16 papers from an EAA session held in Krakow in 2006, offering comprehensive insights into the archaeology of death across diverse periods and cultures. The Materiality of Death examines how ancient peoples understood mortality through burial practices, material culture, and belief systems. Each paper contributes a distinct perspective on funerary archaeology, from ritual comportment to spatial organisation of burial sites. Researchers and students of prehistoric and classical archaeology will find this volume essential for understanding the relationship between physical remains, burial customs, and the ideological frameworks that shaped responses to death. Published by BAR Publishing as part of the respected British Archaeological Reports International Series, this work provides peer-reviewed scholarship that bridges theoretical frameworks with archaeological evidence, making it valuable for both academic libraries and individual scholars specialising in mortuary archaeology and social practices.
