Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 215 pp., illustrations, bibliography. The thesis is connected with death, memory and ancestor commemoration during the Merovingian Period, the Viking Age and the beginning of the Crusade Period (AD 5501150) in Finland. During this time, cremation was the dominant burial rite. Three different burial types 1) cremation cemeteries below level ground, 2) inhumation burials and 3) water burials are discussed in five articles. This thesis shows that it is possible to claim that both artefact and site re-use is a much more widespread phenomenon than has previously been thought in Finnish archaeology. It is also a conscious and deliberate behaviour that can be related to an ancestor cult and commemoration of the dead. 0.0.

Condition: new. Pages: 620 Language: Finnish. Keitä olivat Suomen alueen ensimmäiset asukkaat? Milloin he saapuivat tänne ja mistä? Kuinka he elivät, mitä kieltä he puhuivat ja keiden kanssa he kävivät kauppaa? Missä vaiheessa Lapin, Karjalan ja Suomenlahden pohjoisen rannikkoalueen ihmisistä muodostui suomalaisia? Muinaisuutemme jäljet on kauan kaivattu, uusimpaan tutkimustietoon perustuva yleisesitys Suomen kaukaisimmista juurista. Ajallisesti se kattaa lähes 11 000 vuotta ensimmäisistä kiistattomista asutusjäänteistä Suomen keskiajan loppuun 1500-luvulle. Menneisyydestämme kertovaa aineistoa löydetään jatkuvasti lisää, ja arkeologian avulla myös kirjallisia lähteitä sisältävä varhaishistoria avautuu tässä teoksessa täysin uudesta näkökulmasta. 9789524953634.
