Grave Reminders: Comparing Mycenaean tomb building with labour and memory

Daniel R. Turner

From ca. 1600 - 1000 BC, builders across southern Greece crafted thousands of rock-cut chamber tombs similar to earlier and contemporary ‘beehive’ tholos tombs. Rather than focus on the missing or muddled record of funeral and post-funeral activities, this book re-examines Mycenaean tomb architecture and the decisions that guided it by examining patterns and correlations in tomb design using photogrammetric modelling of 94 multi-use tombs in Achaea and Attica.
