, ed. John Hines and Nelleke Ijssennagger-van der Pluijm. Studies in Historical Archaeoethnology, 10. Woodbridge, Suffolk: The Boydell Press, 2021, xiv, 423 pp.

This welcome volume appears in a series on archaeoethnology founded by Giorgio Ausenda. The perspectives offered by this relatively new sub-discipline bring to the fore a region of north-western Europe and a people seldom studied, except locally, by historians of the Middle Ages, scholarship on Frisia being dominated by that devoted to Francia, just as the early Frisians themselves lay in the shadow of looming Carolingian hegemony.
