A collection of post-Medieval coffin burials is located below the wooden floors of several churches in northern Finland. This paper considers the ethics, challenges, and benefits of the chosen research methods on the burial textiles inside the coffins. As this chapter demonstrates, working conditions below the floors are challenging, but in situ documentation is possible. In addition, as demonstrated through an example from St. Michael’s Church in Keminmaa, the aim is to provide a closer look at the possibilities and limits of in situ documentation taking place in the church, as well as research on funerary textiles based on computed tomography (CT) imaging.

摘要

A collection of post-Medieval coffin burials is located below the wooden floors of several churches in northern Finland. This paper considers the ethics, challenges, and benefits of the chosen research methods on the burial textiles inside the coffins. As this chapter demonstrates, working conditions below the floors are challenging, but in situ documentation is possible. In addition, as demonstrated through an example from St. Michael’s Church in Keminmaa, the aim is to provide a closer look at the possibilities and limits of in situ documentation taking place in the church, as well as research on funerary textiles based on computed tomography (CT) imaging.
