This new edition is completely rewritten and extended, but uses the
same chronological approach to investigate how society and economy
evolved. It draws on a wide range of new data, derived from
excavation, investigation of buildings, metal-detecting, and
scientific techniques. It examines the social customs, economic
pressures, and environmental constraints within which people
functioned, the technology available to them, and how they
expressed themselves, for example in their houses, their burial
customs, their costume, and their material possessions such as
pottery. Their adaptation to new circumstances, whether caused by
human factors such as the re-emergence of towns or changing
taxation requirements, or by external ones such as volcanic
activity or the Black Death, is explored throughout each chapter.
The new edition of Archaeology, Economy and Society remains
essential reading for students and researchers of the archaeology
of Medieval England.
