Life in Early Medieval Wales
Research output: Book/Report › Book › peer-review
The period c. AD300–1050, spanning the collapse of Roman rule to the coming of the Normans, was formative in the development of Wales. This book uses archaeology and other evidence to uncover how people lived in late Roman and early medieval Wales and how their lives changed over time. It discusses landscape and climate change, the end of Roman Wales, changing identities, settlements, food and farming, craftworking and display, trade and exchange, the rise of Christianity and monasticism, changing borders and frontiers with England, and the Viking impact. Throughout the evidence is placed within a wider context enabling comparison with other parts of Britain and beyond.
