Typical for this series, this volume presents painstaking analysis, clearly presented and well-supported by the archaeological and historical evidence, in this case, on the subject of the coins, hacksilver, ingots, weights and balances that were recovered from the rich archaeological site of Kaupang, in southern Norway. Published in an oversized format (8.25x12") and well illustrated with maps, tables, and color plates of the finds and comparative material, the volume contains 10 chapters on the finds and their meaning, especially what they tell us about trade in the Viking Age. The 8 contributors are archaeologists, numismatists, and curators at the U. of Oslo, Norway, the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, the UK; Lund U. and Stockholm U. in Sweden, and the Royal Coin Cabinet in Stockholm.
