About This Item
Paperback / softback. New. An examination of death rituals in early Japan that finds in the practice of double burial a key to understanding the Taika Era (645-710 AD). Drawing on narratives and poems from the earliest Japanese texts, it argues that double burial was the center of a manipulation of myth and ritual for specific ideological and factional purposes.
