Iron Age mortuary rites in southern Britain: Familiar ancestors, foreign ideas

Abstract

Coming from a family which is Scottish on one side and English on the other, Andrew Lamb has been curious about cultural differences between closely related groups from a young age. Combined with a long lasting interest in the European Iron Age (due in no small part to Asterix comics), his current research focuses on the southern counties of England between c.500 BC and AD 70, examining the variation in human remains across this area.
