This collection comprises a project database, text resources for schools and 3 British Museum trail documents created during the Grave Goods: Objects and Death in Later Prehistoric Britain project between 2016 and 2021.
The Grave Goods project focused on material culture in graves and other formal mortuary contexts in Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age Britain, c. 4000 BC to AD 43. The project conducted its analysis at a series of different scales, ranging from macro-scale patterning across Britain, to regional explorations of continuity and change, to site-specific histories of practice, to micro-scale analysis of specific graves and the individual objects (and people) within them.
