Tracing Technical Individuality in Production Processes
2024 || Hardcover || Moiken Hinrichs || Sidestone Press Dissertations

Stereotype
The role of grave sets in Corded Ware and Bell Beaker funerary practices
2020 || Hardcover || Karsten Wentink || Sidestone Press Dissertations
Throughout northern Europe, thousands of burial mounds were erected in the third millennium BCE. Starting in the Corded Ware culture, individual people were being buried underneath these mounds, often equipped with an almost rigid set of grave goods. This practice continued in the second half of the third millennium BCE with the start of the Bell Beaker phenomenon. In large parts of Europe, a ‘typical’ set of objects was placed in graves, known as the ‘Bell Beaker package’.

The Social Museum in the Caribbean
Grassroots Heritage Initiatives and Community Engagement
