Introduction of Case Studies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 December 2022
The case studies selected were aimed at a broad overview of the transitional period in a wide region stretching from central to northern Europe. They included individual graves and cemeteries, in which the change from inhumation to cremation and associated ideas of appropriate burial practices could be most directly observed (such as Pitten and Vollmarshausen), but also regional studies. The case studies provided us with the opportunity to analyse a number of specific places from different parts of Europe in depth (Fig. 5.1). They acted as our ‘thinking-pieces’, although other examples were also drawn on, when useful.
