Dear colleagues,
First I generally would like to thank everyone who sent me information and PDFs concerning porpoise/dolphin remains in medieval Europe.
I have a question about the cooking for pigs issues. It is self evident why one would cook potatoes for pigs but before 1492 potatoes were not on the menu. Is there any textual or visual evidence for cooking slop for pigs in Roman or
medieval texts? Pigs and acorns are a well known visual trope but how were more 'urban' pigs fed before they were slaughtered?
Best,
Alice
