Burials permit a far wider range of inference and insight than the literary texts produced by and for a narrow social elite, and by studying them in depth Dr. Morris is able to offer new interpretations of social change in Graeco-Roman antiquity. The major interdisciplinary importance of the book lies in its attempt to break down barriers between archaeologists and historians of different societies and cultures. aHistory aArchaeology cRBK c68832d68832 00102ddc4071aSNULbSNULd2026-06-03l0o393.0938 MORpG8237r2026-06-04 12:34:19w2026-06-03yRBKzProf. Romila Thapar's Collection
