The death of a child is perhaps the most painful, heartbreaking, and seemingly-unnatural experience we have the displeasure of living with. Many studies have explored death in ancient societies by examining types of burial, burial rites, biblical notions of death and the afterlife, care for the dead, even cults of the dead -- yet no single study has been devoted to children and death in ancient Israel. In The Dying Child, Kristine Henriksen Garroway argues for a stronger position of the child in current archeological trends. She considers emotional and personal aspects of ancient Israeli life -- filling a critical gap in our understanding of this culture.
