Description
21 papers from a session at the 15th USIPP congress, which examine the burial of infants mainly from archaeological and bioarchaeological perspectives, but also including work on wider issues of ritual and symbolism. The papers centre on the Neolithic, Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age in Southeastern Europe Anatolia and the Levant, although for comparative purposes some look back to the Gravettian and forward as far as the Anglo-Saxons, as well as much further afield to Vietnam, for example.
