The Late Middle Ages or Late Medieval Period were the period of European history generally comprising the 14th and 15th centuries (c. 1301–1500).
 The Late Middle Ages followed the High Middle Ages and preceded the onset of the early modern era (and, in much of Europe, the Renaissance).
In the history of Europe, the Middle Ages or Medieval Period lasted from the 5th to the 15th century.
 It began with the fall of the Western Roman Empire and merged into the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery.
 The Middle Ages is the middle period of the three traditional divisions of Western history: classical antiquity, the medieval period, and the modern period.
 The medieval period is itself subdivided into the Early, High, and Late Middle Ages.
Pilgrim badges were worn in the later medieval period by Roman Catholic pilgrims.
 Typically made of lead alloy, they were sold as souvenirs at sites of Christian pilgrimage and bear imagery relating to the saint venerated there.
 The production of pilgrim badges flourished in the Middle Ages in Europe, particularly in the 14th and 15th centuries, but declined after the Protestant Reformation of the mid-16th century.
 Tens of thousands have been found since the mid-19th century, predominantly in rivers.
 Together they form the largest corpus of medieval art objects to survive to us today.
The Early Middle Ages (or early medieval period), lasting from the 5th to the 10th century CE, marked the start of the Middle Ages of European history.
 The Early Middle Ages followed the decline of the Western Roman Empire and preceded the High Middle Ages (c. 10th to 13th centuries).
 The Early Middle Ages largely overlap with Late Antiquity.
 The term "Late Antiquity" is used to emphasize elements of continuity with the Roman Empire, while "Early Middle Ages" is used to emphasize developments characteristic of the later medieval period.
Post-classical history (also called the Post-classical Era is the period of time that immediately followed the end of ancient history.
 Depending on the continent, the era generally falls between the years AD 200-600 and AD 1200–1500.
 The name of this era of history derives from classical antiquity (or the Greco-Roman era) of Europe.
 Though, the everyday context in use is reverse (such as historians reference to Medieval China).
 In European history, "post-classical" is synonymous with the medieval time or Middle Ages, the period of history from around the 5th century to the 15th century.
 It began with the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and merged into the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery.
 The Middle Ages is the middle period of the three traditional divisions of Western history: Antiquity, Medieval period, and Modern period.
 The Medieval period is itself subdivided into the Early, the High, and the Late Middle Ages.
Nunsploitation is a subgenre of exploitation film which had its peak in Europe in the 1970s.
 These films typically involve Christian nuns living in convents during the Middle Ages.
 The main conflict of the story is usually of a religious or sexual nature, such as religious oppression or sexual suppression due to living in celibacy.
 The Inquisition is another common theme.
 These films, although often seen as pure exploitation films, often contain criticism against religion in general and the Catholic Church in particular.
 Indeed, some protagonist dialogue voiced feminist consciousness and rejection of their subordinated social role.
 Many of these films were made in countries where the Catholic Church is influential, such as Italy and Spain.
 One atypical example of the genre, "Killer Nun" ("Suor Omicidi"), was set in then present-day Italy (1978).
England in the Middle Ages concerns the history of England during the medieval period, from the end of the 5th century through to the start of the Early Modern period in 1485.
 When England emerged from the collapse of the Roman Empire, the economy was in tatters and many of the towns abandoned.
 After several centuries of Germanic immigration, new identities and cultures began to emerge, developing into predatory kingdoms that competed for power.
 A rich artistic culture flourished under the Anglo-Saxons, producing epic poems such as "Beowulf" and sophisticated metalwork.
 The Anglo-Saxons converted to Christianity in the 7th century and a network of monasteries and convents was built across England.
 In the 8th and 9th centuries England faced fierce Viking attacks, and the fighting lasted for many decades, eventually establishing Wessex as the most powerful kingdom and promoting the growth of an English identity.
 Despite repeated crises of succession and a Danish seizure of power at the start of the 11th century, by the 1060s England was a powerful, centralised state with a strong military and successful economy.
The High Middle Ages or High Medieval Period was the period of European history around the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries ( 10011300).
 The High Middle Ages are preceded by the Early Middle Ages and followed by the Late Middle Ages, which by convention end around 1500.
Medieval India refers to the period of the Indian subcontinent's history from the 6th century to the 16th century.
 It is divided into two periods: The 'early medieval period' which lasted from the 6th to the 13th century and the 'late medieval period' which lasted from the 13th to the 16th century, ending with the start of the Mughal Empire in 1526.
 The Mughal era, from the 16th century to the 18th century, is often referred to as the early modern period, but is sometimes also included in the 'late medieval' period.
Medieval archaeology is the study of humankind through its material culture, specialising in the period of the European Middle Ages.
 At its broadest, the period stretches from the 5th to the 16th century and refers to post-Roman but pre-modern remains.
 The period covers the upheaval caused by the fall of the Roman Empire and cultures such as the Vikings, Saxons, and Franks.
 Archaeologists often specialise in studying either the Early Middle Ages (Migration Period) or the High Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages, although many projects and professionals move across these chronological boundaries.
 The rich nature of the medieval written record has meant that archaeology has often been seen as the "handmaiden to history", especially in the later medieval period.
 Analysis of material culture may enrich or call into question written evidence from the medieval period and the two sources of evidence need to be used together.
 Medieval archaeology has examined the development of medieval settlements, particularly the development of medieval towns and castles.
 It has also contributed to understanding of the spread and development of Christian monasticism during the medieval period.
