ESTILOS ARQUITETÔNICOS EM ESPAÇOS CEMITERIAIS: CONTRIBUIÇÃO AOS ESTUDOS DE ARQUEOLOGIA FUNERÁRIA

Cemeteries are socially constructed spaces, understood as museum spaces and have examples of art and architecture that show the changes that occur in societies. The tumular architecture, object and research source of funeral archaeology, takes into account its conceptual and typological progression over time. This article examines architectural styles in seven cemeteries of three cities abroad and two Brazilian cities. Père Lachaise in Paris, Forest Lawn Memorial Park Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles and La Recoleta cemetery in Buenos Aires were analyzed. In Rio de Janeiro, the cemetery São João Batista and in Recife three cemeteries: the Lord Bom Jesus of Redemption - cemetery of Santo Amaro, the cemetery of the English and the Bom Jesus of Arraial, the Cemetery of Casa Amarela. The approach is related to cemiterial studies with the interface of funeral archaeology and tumular architecture. Forty jazigos were analyzed, including some architectural styles. This work raised the characteristics of these deposits, defining the styles employed, showing the relationship between styles and purchasing power with the use of materials and techniques corresponding to the socioeconomic status of the owners of the deposits.
