The Relationship of Bronze Age Beliefs and Nature in the Carpathian Basin

Deviant burials

Graves with special objects, unconventional burials (deviation in orientation, posture, ritual, farther away from other graves, physically damaged, physical disability, etc.) are often attributed to persons who may have played a special role in a community. Many archaeologists believe that their task might have been to communicate with the non-human world (Reymann 2015).

Archaeologists discovered a 6300-year-old female skeleton in a Copper Age grave in the vicinity of Pusztataskony (Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County), whose shape and furnishing were quite unusual.
