What do the features found beneath long mounds tell us about this and to what extent do they represent domestic structures. Indeed, how can we distinguish between domestic houses or halls and those that may have been constructed for ritual purposes or ended up beneath mounds? Do so called 'mortuary enclosures' reflect ritual or domestic architecture and did side ditches always provide material for a mound or for building construction? This collection of papers seeks to explore the interface between structures often considered to be those of the living with those for the dead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alistair Barclay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789254108\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789254105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxbow Books Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 7.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Alistair Barclay","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440040587519,"sku":"9781789254105","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a677e561-d8a8-4d53-939a-4a517aa7237d.jpg?v=1777180170","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/houses-of-the-dead-alistair-barclay-9781789254105","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
