Abstract

The ‘After the Plague’ project aims to use multi-proxy analysis to investigate the long and short-term effects of the Black Death (1348-50) on the Medieval population of Cambridge, England. This is being investigated using osteoarchaeological, palaeopathological, isotopic, genetic, metrical and historical data. However, in order to fully understand and contextualise changes seen within the Medieval period, it is crucial to understand changes through deeper time in Cambridgeshire.
