Major sites such as Hamwic and Dorestad typically dominate any
discussion of early medieval trade and emporia - this study is
altogether atypical in many ways. Comprising nineteen papers taken
from a conference held at Worcester College, Oxford in 2000, the
focus here is very much on the smaller, more rural trading centres
and inland markets of Northern Europe. The contributors reflect
very different approaches to the material, including studies that
examine up-to-date historical, archaeological and numismatic
evidence from Britain, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden
dating from the 7th to 9th century. The authors consider the rather
controversial use of metal-detecting in identifying and defining
new sites and patterns of interaction and exchange, highlighting
its positive contribution. Contributors include Mark Blackburn,
David Griffiths, Lars Jorgensen, Michael Metcalf, Julian D
Richards, Peter Sawyer and Astrid Tummuscheit.
