The investigation of human remains has always been central to archaeological, but archaeologists are not the only ones with an interest in their treatment. This book sets a fresh agenda for ethical studies in mortuary investigation, adducing a series of case studies which can be used to understand the questions facing burial archaeology.
Duncan Sayer is Lecturer in Archaeology at the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan). He is co-editor of "Mortuary Practice and Social Identities in the Middle Ages" (2009) and a founding member of the Association for the Study of Death and Society.
"The book is very well detailed, insightful, educating and thought-provoking." --Morongwa N. Mosothwane, South African Archaeological Bulletin
