Reviews

The volume's success in bringing together the different contributions under a similar set of questions and approaches forms an admirable example of how to combine local studies to gain much wider relevance. I therefore would recommend the book to any academic or student interested in the study of death in the past. * American Journal Of Archaeology *


The volume is richly illustrated... and a substantial index provides detailed access to individual contributions. -- (07/01/2015)


The volume's success in bringing together the different contributions under a similar set of questions and approaches forms an admirable example of how to combine local studies to gain much wider relevance. I therefore would recommend the book to any academic or student interested in the study of death in the past. * American Journal Of Archaeology * All of the papers in this volume provide fascinating examples of the reasons for change in funerary practices over time, making it fascinating reading for anyone interested in the archaeology of death and burial. * Fortean Times *
