"From the Baltic to the Black Sea" offers a rare insight into the
closed world of medieval Eastern Europe and opens up a neglected
archaeological tradition to English-speaking readers.
Suggesting new approaches to the period when written history
begins and the early medieval states emerge, the book examines
early European ethnic formations and states, the demography of
medieval populations and the nature of rural settlement and urban
development. There are chapters on the contact between Byzantium
and medieval Hungary and Scandinavia. There is also analysis of the
medieval populations of Czechoslovakia and Denmark, of social
organization in Poland and cultural conflict in Livonia. Studies of
early settlements in Bohemia and the Danube are complemented by
detailed accounts of the origin and growth of three great medieval
cities--Lubeck, Prague and Kiev. This book will provoke a fresh
debate about Europe's medieval past.
