Hi. My name is Sarah and I'm a third year anthropology major and political science minor. I'm absolutely fascinated by mortuary archaeology and I have been ever since I started reading Kathy Reichs' novels back in high school, so when I heard about a class called 'The Archaeology of Death' I was in heaven. So, here I am, beginning my new blog for this amazing class :)
A brief explanation of my blog's title... I'm Jewish. In Judaism whenever you are told that someone has died you are supposed to say 'zichrono livracha' and when written in English it is often abbreviated as z"l. It translates to "may their memory be a blessing". It's pretty much our version of 'rest in peace'. It seems a fitting name for a blog about death.
