Esorcizzare la paura della morte in età medievale. Una sepoltura prona da San Calocero di Albenga (SV)

Résumé

The excavations conducted by the Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana in 2014 at the multistratified site of San Calocero di Albenga, an ancient basilica of the late Antiquity arisen in connection with the burial of a local martyr, have brought to light a deviant burial. The study, through a multidisciplinary approach (archaeological, taphonomic, bioarchaeological, anthropological), outlines the plausible reconstruction of a severely ill person due to scurvy and anemia that, just for the manifestation of such pathologies, disturbed insomuch his community that probably was mistaken for a evil person or possessed by the Devil.That is why the body was laid prone in an isolated grave, deeper than the other.
