by Sarah Tarlow (ed.)
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter & Co. 2015
ISBN/ASIN: 3110439727
Number of pages: 237
Description:
There is now a real appetite on the part of those researching the burial practices of the last 500 years or so for an opportunity to present and discuss our work. This volume represents, we hope, an early contribution to an international discussion of what is still a new and fragmented area of archaeological research.
