This book sets a new agenda for mortuary archaeology. Applying
explicit case studies based on a range of European sites (from
Scandinavia to Britain, Southern France to the Black Sea),
'Mortuary Practices and Social Identities in the Middle Ages'
fulfills the need for a volume that provides accessible material to
students and engages with current debates in mortuary archaeology's
methods and theories. The book builds upon Heinrich Harke's
influential research on burial archaeology and early medieval
migrations, focusing in particular on his ground-breaking work on
the relationship between the theory and practice of burial
archaeology. Using diverse archaeological and historical data, the
essays explore how mortuary practices have served in the make-up
and expression of medieval social identities. Themes explored
include masculinity, kinship, ethnicity, migration, burial rites,
genetics and the perception of landscape.
