Summary:
L’étude des cimetières et sépultures du monde romain souffre encore de la quasi-absence de travaux régionaux qui, seuls, permettront un jour d’élaborer de plus vastes synthèses et de mieux appréhender les relations entre le monde des vivants et celui des morts. Dans cet ouvrage, né d’une thèse de 3e cycle, l’auteur, se fondant sur un corpus et une analyse détaillée des tombes romaines de la péninsule armoricaine, s’est attaché à en explorer la structure et la nature et à montrer que, dans leur variété tant sociale que spatiale et temporelle, elles reflétaient fidèlement la diversité des civitates de l’Ouest gaulois. The study of the burials and cemeteries of the Roman world still suffers from an almost complete lack of regional surveys which, alone, would allow archaeologists to develop wide-ranging synthèses and a better approach of relationships between the world of the living and that of the dead. In the following work, written as a Ph. D. thesis, the author, basing his argumentation on a detailed analysis of the Roman graves discovered in the Armorican peninsula, has attempted to explore their nature and structure, and to show how, in their variety, they closely relate to the cultural diversity of the western Gaulish Civitates.
