Ethics and Burial Archaeology, Paperback / softback Book

Ethics and Burial Archaeology Paperback / softback

Part of the Debates in Archaeology series

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

This book sets a new agenda for ethical studies in mortuary investigation, adducing a series of case studies which can be used to understand the questions facing burial archaeology.

Who owns the dead - not just their bodies but also their stories?

Do the remains themselves matter or are there other political agendas which influence interest groups?

The author encourages archaeologists to be more open and inclusive when conducting mortuary projects, as it is often the perception of secrecy or interference with the dead that raises concern about the treatment of historical and scientifically important skeletal remains.
