Abstract:
Two young adult males from a Roman cemetery at Towcester show unambiguous evidence of decapitation. In one, the skull had been placed over the lower legs, and in the other, the skull was in its correct anatomical position. The significance of this variation and the reasons for decapitation are discussed.
