Abstract

This paper brings an overview of the changing traditions and beliefs towards death, interment and afterlife in late antique (late 3rdâ7th c.) Sagalassos (south-west Turkey). Late Antiquity is often regarded as a transitional phase from pagan to Christian practices. To understand this gradual shift, this paper looks into several aspects of burial culture, ranging from the treatment of the body, over grave design to grave good assemblages, as evidenced by the excavated, late antique graves and skeletal assemblages from Sagalassos. As such, the continuity and change can be traced from Roman Imperial (1stâ3rd c.) to Late Roman (late 3rdâ5th c.) and eventually Early Byzantine (6thâ7th c.) times. Altogether, the evidence from Sagalassos shows that many of the practices that are considered typically Christian, such as a modest grave design, were a continuation of pre-existing Roman Imperial or Late Roman practices of which the meaning and intention altered with the advent of Christendom. Moreover, funerary practices appear to have mirrored broader trends of urban development that are equally observed in the monumental centre of Sagalassos.
