Title: Use of Skeletal Evidence to Undestand the Transition from Roman to Anglo-Saxon Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire
Description: "This book attempts to systematically examine and compare a large sample of burials from the same region, Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire, in the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. A very detailed examination of skeletal material will provide specific evidence about this region in the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods, but also contributes to wider questions of osteological interpretation and political change; specifically the Roman/Anglo-Saxon transition. It will explore large issues such as what can be learned from human bones to understand lifestyle and migration. ... In the conclusion ..., this book will hopefully provide a clear picture of aspects of life in the Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods, which are typically unobservable from other scholarly approaches."--Introduction, p. 7.
