摘要
最近重新发现的埋葬在Sado Valley中石器时代的Poças de S.Bento和Arapouco贝壳中点的13具遗骸照片,于1960年和1962年挖掘,显示了用新方法重新审视挖掘档案的潜力。该分析应用了考古学原理,并通过实验性考古研究丰富了内容,证实了有关尸体处理的细节,并为埋葬空间的使用提供了新的见解。一些尸体可能在埋葬前就已经制成了木乃伊,这一现象可能与它们的管理和运输有关,突显了尸体和埋葬地点在中石器时代葡萄牙西南部的重要性。
Mummification in the Mesolithic: New Approaches to Old Photo Documentation Reveal Previously Unknown Mortuary Practices in the Sado Valley, Portugal
Recently rediscovered photographs of the remains of thirteen individuals buried in the Sado Valley Mesolithic shell middens of Poças de S. Bento and Arapouco, excavated in 1960 and 1962, show the potential of revisiting excavation archives with new methods. The analysis, which applies the principles of archaeothanatology and is enriched by experimental taphonomic research, confirmed details concerning the treatment of the dead body and provided new insights into the use of burial spaces. Some bodies may have been mummified prior to burial, a phenomenon possibly linked to their curation and transport, highlighting the significance of both the body and the burial place in Mesolithic south-western Portugal.
期刊介绍:
The publication organ of the European Association of Archaeologists, the European Journal of Archaeology seeks to promote open debate amongst archaeologists committed to a new idea of Europe in which there is more communication across national frontiers and more interest in interpretation. The journal accepts not only new empirical data and new interpretations of the past but also encourages debate about the role archaeology plays in society, how it should be organized in a changing Europe, and the ethics of archaeological practice. All periods are covered; papers, review articles, interviews and short "debate" pieces are all sought. Whilst English is the primary language of publication in the EJA, papers submitted in French or German will be given equal consideration.
