Arqueologia da morte entre os séculos III e XIII na cidade de Lisboa

The research about the urban funerary world is limited by the constant reuse of space over time, as well as by the constraints inherent to the development of archaeological works in urbanized areas, making difficult to read the archaeological realities involved. This study explores the implementation dynamic of the burial grounds, between the 3rd and 13th centuries in Lisbon municipality where, in recent years, preventive archaeology has uncovered new realities. For this purpose, a survey of the sites was developed based on the Endovelico, using chronospatial criteria, along with bibliographic and documentary sources. The GeoPortal was essential for locating and inventorying the 34 sites, later mapped with the Quantum GIS software. It is intended to contribute to fill in some gaps in the knowledge about the funerary landscape in the period between the decline of the Roman administration and the creation of parish cemeteries and, consequently, considering the separation of the world of the dead from the world of the living, for a better understanding of the city urbanism.
