Abstract
Based on the abundant evidence of funerary archaeology, this article examines the changing patterns from family/multiple to individual burial practices among non-Muslim and Muslim urban and rural societies of early Islamic Palestine, particularly between the seventh and ninth centuries as a possible mirror of changes in kinship dynamics. The transformation from the use of family or communal burial caves to individual tombs is evaluated through several archaeological case-studies, and this change is interpreted vis-a-vis the country’s social and demographic background in the Early Islamic period.
