This series of short volumes, each devoted to a theme which is the
subject of contemporary debate in archaeology, ranges from issues
in theory and method to aspects of world archaeology. This timely,
concise volume enlarges on the debate that still continues
twenty-five years after Richard Hodges' ground-breaking Dark Age
Economics was first published. Special attention is given to the
archaeological, anthropological and historical models about gift
and commodity exchange, pertinent to western Europe during the
seventh to tenth centuries, and how these debates shed new light on
the evolution of towns. One theme of the book examines the role of
the elite in economic practice. Twenty-five years ago
archaeologists and historians challenged this; today,
paradoxically, as government plays a reduced role in managing our
economies, medieval archaeologists and historians concur that the
economics of the Early Middle Ages were highly regulated.
