Abstract

The article discusses issues related to the research on modern rural cemeteries in Podlasie. The paper examines the results of a study of modern Podlasie cemeteries in the following localities: Dąbrówki, Kleosin, Koźliki, Mościcha, Nowodworce, Pajewo, Tykocin and Zbucz. In spite of incomplete information in various written and cartographic sources, rural cemeteries provide a starting point for investigating the regional funerary rites and rituals, they offer an opportunity to learn about the structure of the rural population, kinship of the buried individuals, the mortality of adults and adolescents, describe palaeopathology, and determine the economic and social status of the deceased.

Keywords:
