Burial equipment of the burial ground in Modern age (Material culture of urban world for example on burial ground next to st. Nicolas church)
HANUŠOVÁ, Veronika
Submitted work is dealing with burgher burial rite and burial equipment during the 16th ? 18th centuries. The research of a graveyard near the St. Nicholas Church in České Budějovice from 1971, 2001 and 2005 was used for this purpose. There were many artefacts coming from the graves. The aim of my thesis is to describe the burial rite and the burial equipment of the dead from this burial place on the basis of archeological, historical, ethnographical and anthropological sources. Big attention is paid to devotional articles that represented things which went along with the dead in this world and in the other world. The devotional articles can be found today on many burial places in the Czech Republic and in Europe as well. In relation with these findings, indentification and age determination were done. Because the burial place at the St. Nicholas Church is located in České Budějovice, the thesis is focused on Southern Bohemia during the 16th ? 18th centuries, although it stretched beyond the borders of the given area and time to give a more complex point of view.
