Description
Drawing on archaeology, anthropology, and the stories preserved in ancient graves, this compelling work explores what burial practices reveal about life in Britain during the first millennium. It examines changing beliefs, identities, communities, and patterns of migration through the evidence left behind by the dead, challenging familiar accounts of Britain’s early medieval past. Thoughtful and richly researched, the book shows how bones, objects, and burial rituals can illuminate both individual lives and sweeping cultural change. It offers an engaging alternative history grounded in the science and interpretation of the archaeological record.
