This monograph demonstrates how large faunal assemblages can be utilised to discuss not only changes in diet and animal exploitation but also provide information pertaining to questions of broader archaeological interest. This is the most important rural assemblage of this period to be analysed in Britain since Pamela Crabtree's (1990) study of the earlier Saxon West Stow material. It incorporates new methods of analysis and quantification and will be used as a major comparative reference for many years.' -- International Journal of Osteoarchaeology International Journal of Osteoarchaeology The volumes under review here present unparalleled window on the workings and character of an early medieval estate centre with a degree of resolution only normally encountered in urban archaeology. As principal author and coordinator of the Flixborough project, Chris Loveluck has achieved a substantial task in bringing high-definition archaeology and a new type-site to the field of early medieval studies following two previous detailed interim reports. The Flixborough publication will serve as a benchmark for years to come.' -- Medieval Archaeology Medieval Archaeology
