Abstract (en)
The aim of this article is to concentrate attention on coins from 14th to 17th century burials in Lithuania, which is one of the pagan relicts, according to wide-spread opinion. A comparison between medieval or post-medieval burials have been made and the wide-ranging theory concerning confronting pagan relicts have been discussed.The principal aim of article is to demonstrate that burial coins of the Middle Ages and post-medieval times can be interpreted as adopted by the local population as a reaction to Christian ideology and coin-based economic relations.
