Forensic taphonomy is a new, emerging field, which originated as a subfield of forensic anthropology. The word âtaphonomyâ derives from ancient Greek, where âtaphoâ is âburialâ and ânomosâ is âlawsâ â so it is the study of the laws of burial, or to be more precise, it is the study of burials applied in a legal context.
