The Evolution and Role of Burial Practice in Roman Wales - Paperback

by K. J. Pollock (Author)

The established view of burials in Wales during the Roman period has been that, with a few exceptions, they would conform to Roman types. Dr. Pollock's detailed examination of the available evidence shows that on the contrary native burial types and influences can be found during the Roman period, even in heavily 'Romanized' areas. An analysis of the data is provided chronologically, geogrpahically and in terms of the function of the surrounding settlement (urban, rural, military etc).
