Death Rituals, Social Order and the Archaeology of Immortality in the Ancient World: 'Death Shall Have No Dominion'
Colin Renfrew
The twenty-seven essays in this volume, edited and written by leading archaeologists and prehistorians, consider how prehistoric humans attempted to recognise, understand and conceptualise death. Together they trace the emergence of death as a concept and contributing factor to the formation of communities and social hierarchies, and sometimes the creation of divinities.
