Abstract
A change in burial customs took place in large parts of central Europe during the 13th century BC. The dead were no longer buried in inhumation graves –as was customary until then– but were burned and laid to rest in urns. This characteristic burial practice gave the name to the Urnfield culture that performed this rite. This transformation of burial customs is probably connected to far reaching changes in society and religious beliefs, which cannot, however, be determined in detail. In these conference proceed-ings particular attention is paid to the performance of burials and burial rites. Bioarchaeologists in addition to archaeologists participate to enhance the understanding of these procedures. These important aspects were not hitherto in the focus of research. Supra-regional commonalities as well as local peculiarities are discussed to clarify the question of contacts and mutual influences between various regions in central and southeast Europe. The geographical frame of the contributions that are collected in this volume comprises Austria, Hungary, Rumania, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia and Greece.
