Although the Depositio was studied by important scholars such as Young, Corbin, or the Tauberts, there remain many questions pertaining to the ceremony. Was the ceremony created in the tenth century? Was it widely used? How can the limited number of liturgical witnesses to the Depositio with figures be reconciled with the numerous surviving artifacts? Did the Depositio serve as a model for the lay ceremonies of the burial? In this essay, Chaguinian addresses these questions and more.
