The Alamanni tribe colonised the southwest German region for almost five centuries from around 260 AD. In what is now Baden-Württemberg, entire settlements have been discovered and excavated in recent decades, for example between 1989 and 2005 at the Lauchheim cemetery. These archaeological finds have provided unique insights into life in an early medieval village and allow conclusions to be drawn about the eating habits of the Alamanni. On the basis of these sources and written testimonies from historical writers of other cultures, the authors have created recipes as they might have been used at the Alamanni hearths around 1500 years ago. In this way, this book sheds light on the culinary history of a bygone and forgotten era.
