Many hundred of bone and antler combs have been uncovered during
half a century of excavation at the medieval settlement of Novgorod
in Russia. Recovered from sites across the city, and spanning its
entire medieval history, the combs reveal much about the changes in
comb-making during the transition from the Viking to medieval
period, while their archaeological provenance contributes to our
understanding of the cultural and economic development of Novgorod.
At the heart of the study is a detailed, illustrated typology of
combs, along with analyses of their distribution, their decoration,
the bone material, the location of possible industrial centres and
chronological changes in design. Additional data is presented on a
CD.
