Early Iron Age deathscapes: a case study of the cemeteries at Lefkandi
Περίληψη:
In this paper, a landscape analysis of Early Iron Age funerary contexts is proposed. For this purpose, the five cemeteries found in Lefkandi, Euboea, will be used as a case study. Furthermore, the methodology of Landscape Archaeology will be implemented in order to examine the relationships and impact the landscape had upon the living community of the area. As well as possible social constructions associated to the cemeteries and their surrounding landscape. All this, in an attempt to understand the materiality of death in the Early Iron Age, in other words the perceptions that these past societies had regarding death and the dead.
Some expected results are to identify a conscious use of the image and position of the dead, as well as of the cemeteries in which they were buried, by the community or, at least, some of the groups in it. Such an outcome would be related to the need to claim a disputed territory or/and to impose power and control over it. Secondly, a division of funerary spaces due to differences in status or kin, and relevance to the memory of the community is expected to be observed. As well as the identification or potential recognition of further deathscapes, which have not been considered because of their low imprint in the archaeological record.
