Abstract

Abstract This paper is a theoretical discussion of how popular movements can be recognized in archaeology, with special reference to the late Roman period in north‐western Europe. It argues that funerary practice, and in particular grave‐furnishing, have properties inherent in them that make them peculiarly worthy of study in this connection. It illustrates this proposition with examples drawn from the late Roman cemetery at Lankhills, Winchester.
