Cremation was considered to be abhorrent in the Old Testament and in traditional West Semitic culture, but there is archaeological evidence for Indo-European-style cremation in neighboring Iron Age sites, although not yet at Zincirli itself.

Schloen hopes to illuminate Iron Age culture more widely, of which Zincirli provides a richly documented example.
