Abstract

Burial, for the dead individual, is created by the living. It is a compound of its architecture, fill, dead object, space, and time. Archaeotanatology is the determination of burial practices of the past societies, using different analytical methods and data from archaeological burials, skeletons/human bones. With analytical tools such as the interactive handling of archaeological contexts, the taphonomic analysis of the skeletonization process of the body and the chronology of the articulation of the bones forming the skeletal system, archaeotanatology suggests that these buried objects should be examined using a special method. French scientists Henri Duday and Claude Masse pioneered the establishment of the method in the 1980s. Today, it forms the basis of burial analysis in France, and its use is becoming widespread in European countries. In Anatolian Archeology, the method was first partially used in the field at Aşıklı and in the laboratory analysis of human remains unearthed at Çayönü Skull Building excavation. In recent years, the author of the article applied archaeotanatological methods in the analysis of burials unearthed from the Çemialo Ridge excavations within the scope of the Ilısu Dam Project, and Yenikapı, Pendik, Sirkeci, Sulukule, Beşiktaş and Haydarpaşa excavations in İstanbul. This paper focuses on the excavation and analytical tools of primary individual burials. Samples selected from different types of burials can also be used as a reference in the application of the method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
