Opplysninger | "Papers presented at the online session 'A community of ancestors: the urnfield phenomenon in northern Europe* at the 27th European Association of Archaeologists (EAA) Annual Meeting, Kiel 2021 and the online symposium The URNFIELD tradition of the North*, Haderslev 2022" - Tittelbladet. - This volume presents the results of an international network project on Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age urnfields from northwest Europe. Individual chapters describe the archaeological material and its research history within a local, regional, or supra-regional context, showing the wide range of nuances contained by the funerary phenomenon. The volume provides the first comprehensive overview of the urnfield funerary phenomenon in northwest Europe and forms the foundation for future research across national and disciplinary boundaries. This volume successfully demonstrates that the inconspicuous urnfields of northwest Europe are not as anonymous as previously assumed but hold valuable information about life and death in the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. -- Omslaget
