Abstract
An introduction outlining the background to this special edition of the Journal of Wetland Archaeology, co-edited by Julia Farley and Benjamin Gearey, and the aims of the papers. This volume is the result of an international workshop on bog bodies held at the British Museum in March 2019, the most recent meeting of the Bog Bodies Network that formed following a workshop at Stockholm University in 2009. The volume is divided into three parts. The first addresses the nature and landscape of the bog itself, and its representation in both poetry and archaeological writing. The second looks at the excavation and conservation of bog bodies, while the third considers their interpretation and display.
