Unusual Burial and Violent Death of a Woman in the Beniamin Burial Ground, Armenia (1st century BC − 3rd century AD, Shirak Province)
Anahit Yu. Khudaverdyan · 2024
Catalogue summary
Skeletal trauma and the body's sack-like placement in Beniamin grave two lead the osteological study to infer violent death, probably from a severe occipital injury.
Why this matters
This individual burial supplies rare evidence about mortuary treatment, violence, and health in ancient Shirak rather than only typological grave data.
