This guide gives an archaeological perspective to a walk through York's streets for residents and visitors alike. Archaeological deposits, some nine metres thick, have brought to light an astonishing array of remains which revolutionize understanding of earlier life in the city. The author, an archaeologist with the York Archaeological Trust, and a York resident since 1974, discusses the architectural features of the city and their importance to the community. He examines the physical characteristics, health and food of York's ancient inhabitants, and how they made a living. He also reveals to what extent supernatural and religious beliefs entered everyday life and customs.
