Although a small number of Roman glass urns used as cinerary containers are known, no study has ever been conducted of the
human bones that they contain. This pilot study presents information regarding age and gender of the individuals found in
three of these urns at the Danish National Museum as well as basic data regarding the urns themselves. This information, when
compared with data that may be secured from the collections of the British Museum and elsewhere, may provide evidence for
cultural, temporal or regional variations in the use of glass containers as urns for the bones of the dead. 相似文献

Archaeobotanical studies of funerary offerings allow important insights into beliefs in the afterlife and rituals in the past.
Although the number of such investigations has increased in recent years, there are still only a very few systematic investigations
of Gallo-Roman cremation graves, especially in northern France. The archaeobotanical study presented here concerns the cemetery
(necropolis) of Faulquemont, located in the Département of Moselle. 70 cremation graves, dated from the 1st up to the beginning
of the 3rd century A.D. have been sampled for the study of the botanical remains. The graveyard belongs to a rural site. The
structures, mainly pits, contained secondary deposits of cremations, characterised by ashy fillings, broken archaeological
burned material, bones and carbonised plant remains. 18 plant species have been identified including cereals, pulses, tubers
and fruits plus bread/pastry. The most important ones were Triticum (hulled wheat), Hordeum (hulled barley), Lens (lentil) and Pisum (pea). There were also more “exotic” finds like Olea (olive), Phoenix (date) and Lupinus (lupin). The preservation of the cereals suggests possible cooking before cremation, or a long exposure to the fire. Some
other plants like hazelnut and olive were maybe consumed as a component of funerary meals. In addition, there were also complete
fruits burned as funerary offerings. Only the wealthy deceased received luxurious products such as date. Altogether, the spectrum
of Faulquemont fits very well with the known picture of plant offerings during Gallo-Roman times.
