Anglo-Saxon Deviant Burial Customs - Medieval History and Archaeology
Reynolds, Andrew (Reader in Medieval Archaeology, Reader in Medieval Archaeology, Institute of Archaeology, University College London)
Andrew Reynolds provides the first detailed consideration of how Anglo-Saxon society dealt with social outcasts. Burials of 'deviants' show clear development in this period, moving from locally determined practice in the pre-Christian era, to formal execution cemeteries imposed as kingdoms were consolidated from the seventh century.
