Iron Age Mortuary Practices in Southern England 550 BC to AD 70

This work considers the evidence for mortuary practices in the period between 550 BC and AD 70 in the southernmost counties of England. It examines the quantifiable and qualitative aspects of the data against the backdrop of developments observed in other aspects of the archaeological record. The patterns observed in the mortuary record are further considered against the wider backdrop of mortuary practices elsewhere in Britain, Ireland and the nearer regions of the Continent.
