Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
An anaylsis of how archaeologists might recover ideological changes associated with the treatment and view of the dead which has repercussions for their interpretation of social organisation and social change. Interpretations of status, gender and ranking from funerary deposits are to a large extent dependent on archaeologists' abilities to interpret initially the relationship that the living construct with the dead. This contextual analysis of the Danish Iron Age uses studies of landscape and topography, and contrasts in material culture, to situate the changing placement of the dead within society. Their increasing incorporation into the world of the living in the pre-Roman Iron Age indicates a growing concern with lineage and individual status. Later on, within the hierarchical ordering of Roman Iron Age society, the dead retained their significance for the living but in certain regions this was expressed in terms of their community rather than status differences. | |||||||||||
