Sepolture di prestigio nel bacino mediterraneo (secoli IV-IX). Definizione, immagini, utilizzo
Il periodo compreso tra la tarda Antichità e l’alto Medioevo fu segnato da profonde trasformazioni che investirono ogni ambito della sfera sociale e culturale, ivi compresa quella funeraria. La diffusione del cristianesimo e l’arrivo di nuovi popoli sulla scena europea e mediterranea determinarono l’affermazione di inedite forme di autorappresentazione dei defunti e dei loro gruppi familiari, prime tra tutte l’uso della deposizione ad sanctos e delle sepolture con ricco corredo. A quasi quarant’anni dallo storico incontro di Créteil L’inhumation privilégiée du IVe au VIIIe siècle en Occident, il convegno di Pella si è voluto proporre come una rinnovata occasione di dibattito sugli usi sepolcrali delle popolazioni del mondo tardo e postromano, cercando di offrire una visione il più ampia possibile, in senso geografico e cronologico, dei fenomeni che investirono la sfera funeraria tra il IV e il IX secolo. I testi dei contributi e dei poster raccolti in questi due volumi intendono, dunque, apportare nuovi spunti di riflessione riguardo a uno dei temi più vivacemente dibattuti dall’archeologia e dalla storiografia degli ultimi anni.
