Describes in great detail the techniques used in the excavation of elusive Danish Dark Age and Medieval farm and mill sites focusing principally on carefully stripping back successive floor layers rather than trench excavating and taking account also of post holes and fire-places.  Also, considers pollen analysis as a valuable contribution to the history of Danish vegetation.  Large heavy paperback.  326 pages.  75 black-and-white plates and three large fold-out site plans.  This book was originally published only in Danish but this is the special edition for English readers which was published with a 40 page Appendix containing an English summary of each preceding Danish chapter.  Small inscription, otherwise good clean condition.  Cat No 3180
