medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Apparently there was a paper about this at the Soc. for Medieval Archaeology annual conference last Christmas – a lot of fascinating stuff generally from the bone chemistry people about demographics, diet and epidemiology.

The colleague who went to the conference is looking out the relevant handouts for me.

Dear medieval-religion colleagues,

 

An article in today's New York Times --

 

-- talks about research indicating that in one area of England (at least), victims were not as demographically spread as had been believed, but that rather they were already weakened by other infirmities or by the extremes of age.

 

Best wishes,

George
