A twentieth century

Hi
What's the function of 'a' in:
Mourners have probably spoken to the dead since time immemorial, but in a twentieth century that framed mourning within secular and psychological discourses mourners talked to the dead in private, whether silently or aloud when no-one else was around (whether at home or at the graveside).

Thanks in advance
