Answer
Necromancy is any magic which involves the dead. This includes: Seances, speaking with the dead (ie John Edwards), using the dead to answer questions, praying to one's ancestors, and so on.
Necromancy is also the manipulation of the dead (as mentioned above) but is actually (in some form or another) the most widely used set of magical practices and does not originate with any one particular culture, however societies like the Egyptians, who placed a strong emphasis on death and the after-life, helped to develop modern necromancy.
