R code and Dataset for Secondary burial in Chalcolithic central Italy: radiocarbon-based spatio-temporal modelling of corpse treatment in the Rinaldone culture (ca. 4000–2000 cal BC)

This repository contains the dataset and the analytical scripts necessary to reproduce the spatial and statistical analyses presented in the manuscript: Secondary burial in Chalcolithic central Italy: radiocarbon-based spatio-temporal modelling of corpse treatment in the Rinaldone culture (ca. 4000–2000 cal BC). The study investigates the spatio-temporal structure of bone manipulation practices (from primary inhumation to fully disarticulated secondary deposition) within the Chalcolithic Rinaldone culture in central Italy.
