Human Burial from Pohansko, 9th century, AD. Note the crossed long bones on the chest may be a common regional reaction to misfortune sometimes attributed to vampirism. (Photo courtesy of Dr. Jiri Machacek) |
The importance of horses even in cultures not traditionally considered nomadic or Steppe-derived is reflected in the burial of these animals. Here, and on Anglo-Saxon sites, the warrior elite seem to have marked their prominence through such burials. (Photo courtesy of Dr. Jiri Machacek). |
