Abstract:

Analysis of early dates and stratigraphy of burial mound complexes (the second half of the V millennium BC) led to the conclusion, that they are not directly related to the burial embankment, but relate to complex monumental structures — sanctuaries. The sanctuaries preceded the burial mounds in chronological aspect, and they functioned for a long time without creating an embankment above them. The part of sanctuaries had astronomical reference points and were connected to calendar-zodiac symbolism. Sometimes burials were carried out on the territory of sanctuaries; these burials had sacral na

The paper evaluates works of ancient authors who mention and provide details of the burial of fallen soldiers in ancient Greece, and then it compares them with preserved archaeological finds. Textual analysis shows a long-term tradition of war graves on battlefields. The commanders of the troops provided funeral services in the first place, as the extradition request of bodies was equal to the recognition of defeat. In most cases both sides had enough time to take care of their fallen after the battle, but there were exceptions when the last honors were rather provisional. In addition to buria

Individual burials were discovered in the graves, with some of them placed within rare instances of gabled roof shaped coffin lids, some of which were also painted and decorated with Hellenistic themes.

According to the body position of the deceased, among the burial monuments of Ancient Rus, there are distinguished flexed burials.

As ancient burials constitute the bulk of archaeological evidence in the Maltese islands due to their degree of preservation and survival, the general typology of ancient tombs in these islands is quite well known. However, one type of ancient burial seems to stand out for its uniqueness in the Maltese islands, even though it seems to have been widespread in the Roman world. This is the burial known as ‘alla cappuccina’: a very simple burial that employs slabs or tiles set gable wise to cover the corpse beneath.

One of the aims is to clarify how Pre-Roman Iron Age urn graves originally were visualized above ground.

At the end of the 19 th century, in a large Scythian necropolis near the village of Volkovtsy, located in the upper reaches of the Sula River, S. A. Mazaraki investigated a burial mound with a cremation burial. Two wire fibulae with “eights” and a spiral gold ring were found in the burial. Analogies come from Late Scythian, ancient and Zarubintsy antiquities. The in situ cremation rite in the barrow allows its interpretation as belonging to the Sarmatian-Zarubintsy group of burials (after M. B. Shchukin).

In the minds of ancient people, tombs and burials were where the lives of this world ended and another type of life began. By incorporating the concepts of life found in Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, and the widespread belief in ghosts and immortals, burial ceremonies evolved during the Wei and Jin 魏晋 dynasties (220–420) into an integrated and unified notion of burial. The funeral ritual’s imaginative and fanciful depictions of the hereafter express sentimental devotion to life and contemplation of death.

Abstract:

The work analyzes three recently discovered burial monuments of the 1st century BC – mid (?) 1st century AD in the Steppe Crimea. Their distinctive features are the use of an older kurgan for burial, the predominant orientation of the deceased to the northern sector, the insignificant depth of the burial, the paucity of grave goods, etc. – typical for early Sarmatian burials of the Northern Black Sea region. Therefore, the complexes under consideration should be correlated specifically with this cultural group. It is important to emphasize that, although large-scale field research in recent ye

Abstract:

Many thousands of burials have been excavated from across the Roman world, documenting a variety of funerary practices and rites. Individual burials, however, sometimes stand out for their atypical characteristics. The authors report the discovery of a cremation burial from ancient Sagalassos that differs from contemporaneous funerary deposits. In this specific context, the cremated human remains were not retrieved but buried in situ, surrounded by a scattering of intentionally bent nails, and carefully sealed beneath a raft of tiles and a layer of lime. For each of these practices, textual an

Just as there is no tree without roots, so there is no culture without symbolic and ritual manifestations. No culture can do without symbols and rituals. Ritual contains the most fundamental answers to the challenges of a changing world, especially when it comes to borderline situations – the meeting of life and death, which is most clearly reflected in the funeral rite. The social constants of ritual contain the unshakable values of culture, which make life and death, good and evil, order and chaos distinguishable. The power of ritual lies in its pronounced symbolic nature. Culture manages to

Among the whole variety of burial structures (stone boxes, cists, ground burials, etc.), Jar burials became predominant, especially at the end of the first century BC – the first centuries AD.

The Tutkaul site is located on the territory of modern Nurek reservoir and was excavated by V.A. Ranov in the 1960s. Tutkaul has yielded three burials attributed to the Hissar Neolithic technocomplex. Part of the human remains were lost such as fragments of the postcranial remains from burials 2 and 3.

Abstract:

The article addressed the issues of the time of appearance and duration of the tradition of burials in dwellings in West Siberia. Preliminary conclusions have been made concerning the studies of this issue for the latest twenty-five years except the rite semantics. Many specialists believe that the rite of interment inside dwellings mainly of children appeared in West Siberia in cultures of the latest century of the 3rd–2nd millennia BC. Its origins are linked with the active influence or even migration of population groups from early agricultural regions of the Middle East and Central Asia. N

Furthermore, the researchers date the complex from the burial Kholmskoe to the different time periods such as: the beginning / first half / the end of the 1st century BC, or even later time.While the burial n
