The papers in this collection consider the ways in which material
culture has been deployed in different societies to construct and
support social memory. A range of topics are discussed including
Neolithic monumental culture, memory and material culture in
Aquincum, the Roman capital of Pannonia Inferior, early medieval
burial rites in Central Europe, ritual memory and Carolingian
kingship, as well as in Pavia, the Lombard capital, the use of
relics in combatting the Hussite Reformation, the holy "Sanjak"
peacock object in Yezidi religion, and Olvera Street in L.A., an
attempt to recreate an idealised Mexican past.
