Title: Sacred monuments and practices in the Baltic Sea region
Description: This book represents the outcome of the ""Conference on Church Archaeology in the Baltic Sea Region"" held in August 2013 in Turku, Finland, which, in turn, had its roots in the long tradition of Scandinavian Symposia for Nordic Church Archaeology, started in 1981 in Denmark. During the past few decades, the scope of church archaeology has expanded immensely and can presently be described as a multifaceted field of research. This book represents a convincing testament to this development. Every chapter gives a distinctive perspective on the theme of sacred monuments and practices written by lea.
