Brandbestattungen von der mittleren Donau bis zur Ägäis zwischen 1300 und 750 v. Chr

Description:

In these conference proceedings particular attention is paid to the performance of burials and burial rites between 1300 and 750 BC. A change in burial customs took place in large parts of central Europe during the 13th century BC. The dead were no longer buried in inhumation graves ? as was customary until then ? but were burned and laid to rest in urns. This transformation of burial customs is probably connected to far reaching changes in society and religious beliefs.
