Socialt och kulturellt liv i St Giles katedral : En arkeologisk studie av skelettlämningar och gravskick

Sammanfattning: Osteological, spatial, and grave condition analysis in St Giles’ Cathedral revealed the social hierarchy in medieval Scotland, from the 12th century to the 15th century. Cultural life in the cathedral was divided between the ecclesiastical people active in it, ranging from grave construction to grave sectioning and mortuary rites. This was mirrored in the way the individuals were buried, which made it possible to analyze them and make conclusions on the cultural and social life during the Middle Ages in Scotland.
