Abstract(s)
Hroby s větším počtem zemřelých, jednoznačně pohřbených v krátkém časovém období (hromadné hroby), jsou spojovány obvykle s oběťmi válečných konfliktů. V poslední době se větší pozornost věnuje hrobům s oběťmi epidemií nebo hladomoru. Připsat je bezpečně konkrétní události je obtížné. Příspěvek se na příkladu nálezů u kostnice v Kutné Hoře – Sedlci zabývá detaily pohřebního ritu (pietní nebo nepietní uložení, výbava), úpravou hromadných hrobů a doklady opatření, která měla eliminovat obavu z možného šíření nákazy. Porovnání může ukázat na rozdíly v pohřebních zvyklostech u obětí hladomoru (1318) a moru (1348–1350).
Graves containing a larger number of the deceased obviously buried over a short period of time (mass graves) are usually associated with the victims of war conflicts. Recently, attention has been paid to graves with the victims of epidemics and famine, yet linking them securely to a specific event is difficult. This article uses the example of the finds at the ossuary in Kutná Hora – Sedlec to examine the details of the burial rite (ceremonial or non-ceremonial internment, grave goods), the layout of mass graves and the evidence of measures to eliminate concerns over the possible spread of a disease. The comparison might show differences in burial practices between the victims of famine (1318) and plague (1348–1350).
