The international conference Funerary in Friuli and the neighbouring regions between Iron Age and Late Antiquity (San Vito al Tagliamento (Pordenone, Italy), February 14, 2013) was organized as the final event in Friuli Venezia Giulia of Project PArSJAd - Archaeological Park of the Northern Adriatic, funded by the Cross-Border Cooperation Programme Italy-Slovenia 2007-2013. It was also held to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the excavation (1973) of the first Iron Age urnfield ever found in the Friulian plain, the necropolis of San Vito al Tagliamento. The conference proceedings present a comprehensive overview of this topic in the North Adriatic region, with the review and update of old excavation data and the presentation of unpublished reports resulting from very recent archaeological research. For the Roman age in particular, the conference covered a topic that has registered a significant increase in data in the region over the past two decades but has not yet been debated thoroughly: funerary equipment outside of large urban centres.
