Book Historical Archaeology

Download or read book Historical Archaeology written by Pedro Paulo A. Funari and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical Archaeology demonstrates the potential of adopting a flexible, encompassing definition of historical archaeology which involves the study of all societies with documentary evidence. It encourages research that goes beyond the boundaries between prehistory and history. Ranging in subject matter from Roman Britain and Classical Greece, to colonial Africa, Brazil and the United States, the contributors present a much broader range of perspectives than is currently the trend.

Book The Local Customs Accounts of the Port of Exeter  1266 1321

Download or read book The Local Customs Accounts of the Port of Exeter 1266 1321 written by Maryanne Kowaleski and published by Devon & Cornwall Record Society. This book was released on 1993 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exeter possesses the best series of local customs accounts from medieval England, beginning in 1266 and surviving for almost 70 per cent of the years up to 1498. They are also far more complete than other local accounts: listing ships' names, home ports, shipmasters and dates of arrival, as well as the importers and their cargoes. Equally remarkable is their focus on coastal as well as overseas traffic, unlike the better known national customs accounts which recorded only overseas trade. From the Exeter accounts we can follow the movements of foreign and domestic shipping, grain imports during the great Famine of 1315-17, and the identity of the merchants, shipmasters and mariners who carried on the various kinds of trade.Dr Kowaleski's introduction provides the first detailed account of the port of Exeter and its activities during this period, followed by a complete translation of the surviving accounts from 1266 to 1321. The book also includes a specimen Latin account, a glossary of weights and measures, map, and full indexes.

Book A Prospering Society

    Book Details:
  • Author : John Hare
  • Publisher : Univ of Hertfordshire Press
  • Release : 2011-09
  • ISBN : 1907396608
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book A Prospering Society written by John Hare and published by Univ of Hertfordshire Press. This book was released on 2011-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a case study of a particular countryside and town in southern England--namely, the county of Wiltshire and the city of Salisbury--this record seeks to explore the changing nature of English society during the period from 1380 to 1520. It examines the influence of landscape and population on the agriculture of Wiltshire, the regional patterns of arable and pastoral farming, and the growing contrast between the large-scale mixed farming of the chalklands and the family farms of the claylands. Discussing how economic growth generated problems of its own, this study is the first to fully investigate Wiltshire's agriculture history during the late Middle Ages, a period recognized as one of considerable change.

Book English Inland Trade

    Book Details:
  • Author : Michael Hicks
  • Publisher : Oxbow Books
  • Release : 2015-07-31
  • ISBN : 1782978240
  • Pages : 233 pages

Download or read book English Inland Trade written by Michael Hicks and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Southampton brokage books are the best source for English inland trade before modern times. Internal trade always matched overseas trade. Between 1430 and 1540 the brokage series records all departures through SouthamptonÕs Bargate, the owner, carter, commodity, quantity, destination and date, and many deliveries too. Twelve such years make up the database that illuminates SouthamptonÕs trade with its extensive region at the time when the city was at its most important as the principal point of access to England for the exotic spices and dyestuffs imported by the Genoese. If SouthamptonÕs international traffic was particularly important, the townÕs commerce was representative also of the commonplace trade that occurred throughout England. Seventeen papers investigate SouthamptonÕs interaction with Salisbury, London, Winchester, and many other places, long-term trends and short-term fluctuations. The rise and decline of the Italian trade, the dominance of Salisbury and emergence of Jack of Newbury, the recycling of wealth and metals from the dissolved monasteries all feature here. Underpinning the book are 32 computer-generated maps and numerous tables, charts, and graphs, with guidance provided as to how best to exploit and extend this remarkable resource. An accompanying web-mounted database (http://www.overlandtrade.org) enables the changing commerce to be mapped and visualised through maps and trade to be tracked week by week and over a century. Together the book and database provide a unique resource for Southampton, its trading partners, traders and carters, freight traffic and the genealogies of the middling sort.

Book Arrowstorm

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard Wadge
  • Publisher : The History Press
  • Release : 2009-03-10
  • ISBN : 0750967129
  • Pages : 361 pages

Download or read book Arrowstorm written by Richard Wadge and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2009-03-10 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the overwhelming importance of the military archer in the late medieval period. The longbow played a central role in the English victory at the battles of Crecy and Agincourt. Completely undermining the supremacy of heavy cavalry, the longbow forced a wholesale reassessment of battlefield tactics. Richard Wadge explains what made England's longbow archers so devastating, detailing the process by which their formidable armament was manufactured and the conditions that produced men capable of continually drawing a bow under a tension of 100 pounds. Uniquely, Wadge looks at the economics behind the supply of longbows to the English army and the social history of the military archer. Crucially, what were the advantages of joining the first professional standing army in England since the days of the Roman conquest? Was it the pay, the booty, or the glory? With its painstaking analysis of contemporary records, Arrowstorm paints a vivid portrait of the life of a professional soldier in the war which forged the English national consciousness.
