Human remains in archaeology. Excavation, recording and analysis of data: the funerary context of San Severo in Classe
Funerary archaeology reveals burial practices and the ways in which such mortuary practices can express social identities. The integration of archaeological and anthropological evidence can offer significant data regarding burials. The study of the cemeteries of San Severo at Classe (Ravernna) is being carried out using this integrated approach. All phases of the site of San Severo are characterised by burials and this funerary practice changed and developed, reflecting the life of the basilica and the monastery. All information regarding the characteristics of the layers, the phases and activities of members is entered in the GIS platform, so composite plans can be automatically generated.
