What’s in the set

  • Crypt [Hardcover] — Unlock secrets from bones preserved for centuries in tombs, graves and crypts. Using cutting-edge science to examine human remains and burials, Crypt reveals intimate details about how individuals lived and died during the Middle Ages, offering a fresh perspective beyond documents about the rich and powerful.
  • Buried — Explore funerary rituals that illuminate beliefs about mortality: Roman cremations and graveside feasts, deviant burials with rearranged remains, richly furnished Anglo-Saxon graves, and the earliest Christian burial grounds in Wales. Buried provides an alternative history of the first millennium in Britain.
  • Ancestors — In this groundbreaking prehistory of Britain, Professor Alice Roberts uses burial sites and ancient DNA analysis to trace the island’s earliest inhabitants. Told through seven fascinating burial sites, Ancestors explains how people moved, mixed and settled — revealing the roots of modern Britain.
