Honouring the Ancient Dead
Honouring the Ancient Dead (HAD) is an advocacy group speaking out on behalf of the British Pagan community with regard to archaeology, museums and heritage. Its particular area of interest is human remains of British pagan (pre-Christian) and Pagan (pagan religious) provenance, and associated artefacts, seeking to ensure that secular and non-Pagan organizations and relevant individuals are aware of Pagan religious sensitivities with reference to archaeological digs, the handling, storage and display of remains, and the topical issue of reburial. HAD is made up of a council of Pagan theologians, together with Pagan and non-Pagan advisors from the fields of museums, archaeology and academia. It is happy to talk with interested parties and to consider new issues to address and new projects to get involved in.
