The presented thesis deals with the evaluation of the graves, preliminary dated in the early Iron Age, made during rescue archaeological excavations in Prague-Ďáblice and Prague-Suchdol within years 2000-2004. The basis of this work is typhologicall and chronologicall analysis of movable artifacts, funeral rite analysis and evaluation of burial grounds as a whole. Theoretical questions derive from this, concerning social structure of Bylany culture. On the theoretical level, the issue of the settlement context is also considered. Key words: hallstatt period - Bylany culture - Prague - burial ground - social structure - settlement context

The diploma thesis presented deals with an overall assessment of the Great Moravian burial ground in Rajhrad (Brno- venkov), which was excavated in the years 1972 to 1976. The work is based on a catalogue of this burial ground and the neighbouring one in Rajhradice published by Čeněk Staňa. It follows individual aspects of funeral rites at a necropolis and evaluates the inventory of the graves. Based on the findings, the work dates the burial ground, compares with burial ground in Rajhradice and puts they into context of all Great Moravian burial grounds. Key words Rajhrad and Rajhradice - Great Moravian Empire - funeral rite - chronology

Right after the World War I, a precipitation of the dismantling of the traditional models of care for the dying and the bereaved just occurred. Death has become taboo and that same ban hit everything that it refers, including the mourning that has become an intimate and lonely experience. The desecration of death led to unritualized mourning, however, this did not imply neglect or abandonment of the Dead. Instead, we observe the emergence of new forms of relationship with the Dead in which the rites appear reconfigured, the manner of a bricolage. In order to study these new configurations we have chosen to investigate one of them that is called "in loving memory tattoos" produced due to a bereavement. This research suggests that in loving memory tattoos constitute an neurotic s individual (funeral) rite , that is, a private way of ritualizing mourning and paying funeral tribute in times of suppression of the death of social spaces and unritualized mourning. As we consider the making of a memorial tattoo a private rite, it was important to investigate the function of this rite that can both serve as a possible treatment of the real by the symbolic order in a kind of mourning written on the skin, as a rite that it aims to prolong the relationship with the departed one, producing an endless mourning in which the writing of the mourning never ends / Durante séculos, a morte foi tratada como um fato social e público que ocorria acompanhado por ritos sagrados. Logo após a Primeira Guerra, observou-se a precipitação do desmantelamento dos modelos tradicionais de cuidados aos agonizantes e amparo aos enlutados. A morte tornou-se tabu e essa mesma interdição atingiu tudo o que a ela se refere, incluindo o luto que se tornou uma experiência íntima e solitária. A dessacralização da morte levou à desritualização do luto, porém isso não implicou em abandono ou esquecimento dos mortos. Ao contrário, observamos a emergência de novas modalidades de relação com os mortos em que os ritos aparecem reconfigurados, ao modo de um bricolage. Com o intuito de estudar essas novas configurações, optamos por investigar uma delas, as chamadas tatuagens in memoriam produzidas em decorrência de um luto. Essa pesquisa sugere que as tatuagens in memoriam se constituem em um rito fúnebre individual do neurótico , isto é, um modo privado de ritualizar o luto e prestar tributo fúnebre em tempos de dessocialização da morte e desritualização do luto. Ao considerarmos a produção das tatuagens in memoriam um rito privado coube-nos investigar a função desse rito que pode tanto servir como tratamento possível do real pelo simbólico em forma de uma escrita do luto grafada no corpo, quanto um rito que visa prolongar a relação com o ser perdido, produzindo um luto interminável em que a escrita do luto não se conclui

This thesis deals with Bell Beaker Culture at the end of the Eneolithic in two areas of its extension, in the Czech Republic and the Iberian Peninsula. We consider it as a one culture; however we can observe some differences mostly based on different domestic cultural background. Differences and similarities in manifestation of culture derived from an analysis of its various aspects in both areas such as settlement structure, funeral rite and material culture, of which the most characteristic are decorated Bell Beakers and archery equipment coming from the graves. This work is devoted to the characterization of Bell Beaker society and evolution of opinions on this phenomenon too.

La problématique de la célébration des funérailles chrétiennes dans un contexte de double appartenance religieuse chez les Baoulés de Côte d’Ivoire permet d’axer la réflexion sur la théologie de l’inculturation de la foi. En reconsidérant par ailleurs le concept de la double appartenance, on peut soutenir que celui-ci devient une exigence de l’inculturation comprise comme une « dramadialogie ». Elle s’inscrit dans une logique de dialogue, entre le christianisme et les croyances religieuses baoulées, au cours duquel les éléments de la culture baoulée meurent à leurs non valeurs en vue d’une résurrection transfiguratrice. Mais en même temps, cette culture, en accueillant ce message, enrichit le patrimoine ecclésial. La réappropriation du discours théologique chrétien sur la mort et la ritualité funéraire, à partir d’un horizon de sens africain, est la particularité de cette construction théologique, qui est à situer également à l’intérieur de ce même champ sémantique du processus de l’inculturation vue comme une « dramadialogie ». On n’oubliera cependant pas de souligner que toute cette trajectoire de théologie thanatique inculturée, éclairée par l’actualité du mystère pascal doit s’ouvrir aussi à la catholicité pentecostale de l’Église. / The question of the celebration of Christian funerals in a context of dual religious affiliation among the Baoulés of Côte d'Ivoire obliges us to focus our reflection on the theology of the inculturation of faith. On reconsidering moreover the concept of dual affiliation, it can be argued that this notion becomes a requirement of inculturation understood as a "dramadialogy". It fits into a logic of dialogue between Christianity and Baoulé religious beliefs in the course of which the elements of the Baoulé culture die off to their non-values for a transfigurative resurrection. But at the same time, by welcoming this message, this culture enriches the heritage of the Church. The reappropriation of the Christian theological discourse on death and funeral rituals from a perspective of African sense is the peculiar feature of this theological construction which is also to be situated within the limits of this same semantic field of the process of inculturation seen as a "dramadialogy". We should not forget, however, to point out that this entire trajectory of inculturated thanatic theology, enlightened by the actuality of the paschal mystery, must also open up to the Pentecostal catholicity of the Church.
