Groundbreakers
This paper presents osteological analyses and radiocarbon dates from human remains found in early churchyards on the Baltic island of Gotland. Graves from the first phases of burial have been discovered beside churches on Gotland on many occasions since the late nineteenth century, usually during preparations for new interments. Previous work has focused on the artefacts found with many of them, which suggest that the early churchyard dead were b…
Where is everybody? The unburied dead in late Roman and early medieval England
Substantial debate surrounds the relative lack of formal burials in Britain during the fifth century AD, which was a key period of social and economic transition following the withdrawal of the Roman army. Here, the authors argue that the 'missing fifth century' may be explained, in part, by the continuation of archaeologically invisible mortuary treatments practised in the preceding Iron Age and Roman period. Compilation of published radiocarbon…
A Radiocarbon-Based Model of Changing Burial Rites in Early Medieval England
This paper uses a “dates as data” approach to understand how grave good use and cemetery space changed across the early medieval period in England. A series of composite kernel density estimations were created, based on a dataset of nearly 1100 graves with associated radiocarbon dates, from between the fourth and ninth centuries AD. This modeling revealed a previously unrecognized peak in grave furnishing around 600 AD, which coincides with a pea…
Bed Burials in Early Medieval Europe
BURIAL IN A BED IS A RARE PHENOMENON, but one which is found persistently throughout early medieval Europe. Bed burials are found across a wide geographic area, from England in the west, to Slovakia in the east, and to Scandinavia in the north; while their chronological distribution ranges from the early 5th to the early 10th century. The identities of the people buried in these graves are diverse, including men, women, adults and children, and t…
Grave Goods in Early Medieval Europe
This article analyses the use of grave goods in burials across early medieval Europe and how that use changed over the course of the 6th to 8th centuries CE with the widespread transition to unfurnished burial. It uses data gathered from published cemetery excavation reports from England, France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. The grave good use in these cemeteries was analysed using GIS methods to visualise regional differen…
Connectivity and funerary change in early medieval Europe
The Dead and their Possessions
Between the sixth and eighth centuries ad , the practice of furnished burial was widely abandoned in favour of a much more standardized, unfurnished rite. This article examines that transition by considering the personhood and agency of the corpse, the different ways bonds of possession can form between people and objects, and what happens to those bonds at death. By analysing changing grave good use across western Europe, combined with an in-dep…
Revisiting Postwar Taxation in Japan and its Contemporary Implications
For several weeks of the extraordinarily hot summer of 2010, Japan was embroiled in a stand-off between Prime Minister Kan Naoto, representing fiscal austerity, and Ozawa Ichiro, representing more spendthrift Keynesianism. Both sought the presidency of the DPJ in the September 14th party elections, with the winner becoming PM. Faced with dismal poll results in advance of the July Upper House elections, Kan was forced to backtrack on his commitmen…
