How did people spend their free time? What did people eat and how did they live? What role did religion and superstition play? The renowned medieval archaeologist Barbara Scholkmann impressively presents the surprisingly detailed results of recent research, which are now more than just additions to the written sources.
Decay and decline between antiquity and the Renaissance - for centuries the Middle Ages had to struggle with the stigma of an epochal low point. Disparagingly regarded as an "in-between time", the Middle Ages did not receive the attention it deserved for a long time - until now. Living, dwelling, believing - archaeologists are penetrating ever deeper into the everyday world of the multi-layered society of the Middle Ages.
