Diet and urbanisation in medieval Holland. Studying dietary change through carious lesions and stable isotope analysis

This paper investigates the effect of these changes on diet by comparing skeletal collections from the early/central medieval rural village of Blokhuizen (800–1200 CE) to the late medieval urban town of Alkmaar (1448–1572 CE) using a combination of the prevalence and location of carious lesions (n teeth...
