The Archaeology of Ancestors: Death, Memory, and Veneration
Erica Hill-Jon B. Hageman
Contributors to this volume demonstrate that ancestor veneration was about much more than claiming property rights - the spirits of the dead were central to domestic disputes, displays of wealth, and power and status relationships. Case studies from China, Africa, Europe, and Mesoamerica use the evidence of art, architecture, ritual, and burial practices to explore the complex roles of ancestors.
