Customer Reviews

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.
