- Abstract
- Located in northern Tuscany, the city of Lucca represents a perfect case study to understand the development of the late antique funerary landscape. Although numerous burials are known for the 5th-7th century timespan, few studies have explored the factors that led to the formation of several cemetery areas within urban and suburban spaces. This study thus aims to investigate spatial interactions among burials and assess the role of urban and suburban elements in creating funerary landscapes through Point Pattern Analysis.
