Abstract

This study deals with Early Modern burials in ancient monuments located nowhere near churches or execution sites. Examples are given from four prehistoric sites in different Swedish provinces, dating from the Early Neolithic through the Roman Period, with a total of 15 buried Early Modern individuals. Written sources along with details of the burial rite suggest that they are plague burials. Such were not welcome in churchyards because of concerns over the poorly understood contagion. Why people all over Sweden occasionally targeted ancient monuments specifically for this purpose is not clear. In one case, they saw the monument as the remains of a church. More generally, they knew that much older burials sanctified and lent some prior sanction to those sites.

瑞典史前遗迹中的早期现代异形墓葬
本研究涉及教堂或刑场附近古迹中的早期现代人墓葬。研究举例说明了瑞典不同省份的四个史前遗址,年代从新石器时代早期到罗马时期,共埋葬了 15 位早期现代人。文字资料和埋葬仪式的细节表明,这些都是瘟疫葬。由于人们对这种传染病知之甚少,因此教堂墓地不欢迎这种葬式。为什么瑞典各地的人们偶尔会专门为此目的而选择古迹,这一点并不清楚。在一个案例中,他们将古迹视为教堂的遗迹。更普遍的情况是,他们知道年代更久远的墓葬是神圣的,并在某种程度上事先认可了这些地点。
