Reviews for Innovation and Implementation: Critical Reflections on New Approaches to Historic Mortuary Data Collection, Analysis, and Dissemination

“…the chapters provide a clear description of historic cemetery archaeological practices, giving individuals a better idea of potential archaeological projects and careers and the challenges faced by those in the field.” • Heather Garvin, Des Moines University “This is a timely, well-organized volume that focuses on new and updated approaches toward cemetery studies. The 14 chapters outline different but complimentary methodologies in cemetery studies and their application over a cross section of global locations.” • Nancy E. Tatarek, Ohio University
