Medieval Archaeology. An Encyclopedia, 2000, 50 ph., 200 dessins, rel. -

This work covers the archaeology of all medieval Europe, from Ireland to Russia and from Scandinavia to Italy. Entries span the entire medieval period from the fall of the western Roman Empire (5th c. AD) to the end of the Middle Ages (c. 1500 AD). This is a comprehensive guide to a rapidly changing field, spurred in many countries by urban development which has led to the discovery of medieval ruins.
