Burial Taphonomy and Post-Funeral Practices in Pre-Roman Italy

The volume includes papers with individual contributions by the authors dealing with taphonomic processes as well as post-funeral practices and reuse of graves, which could be determined. It is shown that besides the state of preservation, the methods of investigation are enormously important in order to be able to recognize, for example, multiple burials.
