Hardcover. Condition: Fair. 2008 Museum of London Archaeology Service large format hardcover edition. Ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the cover: The East Smithfield Black Death cemetery was excavated in 1986-8 as part of the Royal Mint site. Founded in 1348/9, it was one of two emergency burial grounds established when the Black Death came to London. The work reported here represents the only large-scale excavation and post-excavation analysis of a proven Black Death cemetery in this country and is indisputably of international importance in terms of its archaeology and the human bone assemblage derived from the c.759 burials found. Two distinct burial areas were established, both using a combination of well-ordered individual graves and mass burial trenches. The burial practices and the human bone assemblage are analysed and discussed in relation to Black Death studies in London and elsewhere.The impact of the plague on medieval London and the importance of this cemetery, and that at West Smithfield, in the city's attempts to cope with the disaster are both assessed. The earlier history of the site and the influence of the Black Death cemetery on the subsequent use of the site are also examined, particularly its effect on the later foundation and layout of the Cistercian abbey of St Mary Graces.

Bonus: dicas uteis de estudo para aproveitar ao maximo sua sessao de estudoTrechos do livro: [.]Se seu objetivo e muito grande para ser alcancado, voce pode estar se preparando para o fracasso e isso tambem nao ajudara a motiva-lo a estudar e realizar seus objetivos.Depois de conhecer seu estilo de aprendizagem, faca uma autoavaliacao de seus habitos de estudo.Aqui estao algumas perguntas que a ajudarao a criar metas realistas e a criar um planejamento de estudo: [.]Se voce deixar todo o estudo para os ultimos dias, nao podera se lembrar de nada. Por outro lado, se voce comecar meses antes, tera tempo de sobra para deixar seu cerebro absorver tudo o que precisa saber. E ainda revisar o que foi estudado.Tudo o que voce precisa fazer e comecar a estudar 1 hora, 2 horas todos os dias e aumentar gradativamente a medida que se aproxima das provas.Repare que quanto mais estudar, mais motivado(a) estara. Quanto mais motivacao, mais horas de dedicacao.No comeco, parece que voce nao esta aprendendo nada, mas prometo que, se voce aplicar a consistencia nos estudos diarios por tempo suficiente, aprendera coisas sem nem perceber.[.]Comece com os topicos e assuntos dificeis primeiro, para que voce nao os adie ate uma data posterior. Se esses assuntos forem realmente dificeis para voce, as sessoes de estudo mais curtas funcionarao melhor.[.]Mesmo os adultos que nao sao mais tecnicamente estudantes - ou aqueles que sao graduados ou estao fazendo cursos on-line para avancar em sua carreira - podem sentir que nunca descobriram realmente a melhor maneira de estudar. Parte do problema, e que o cerebro de cada pessoa e o conjunto de habilidades ou estilo de estudo sao unicos. Isso significa que metodos diferentes funcionam para pessoas diferentes, e pode ser complicado descobrir que tipo de sessao de estudo sera eficaz para voce - especialmente se voce estiver trabalhando ao lado de outras pessoas. Alguns de nos gostam de anotar tudo para reter conhecimento; outros gostam de formular perguntas e ideias enquanto leem, e outros preferem nao fazer anotacoes e utilizar o tempo para assistir mais vezes as aulas. O que quer que ajude sua mente a absorver o conhecimento pode ser drasticamente diferente das taticas que funcionam para os outros estudantes.[.] O cerebro, como todos os musculos e orgaos, e um tecido e sua funcao diminui com o uso insuficiente e a idade. A partir dos 20 anos, a maioria de nos perde cerca de 1% ao ano do volume do hipocampo, uma parte importante do cerebro relacionada a memoria e a certos tipos de aprendizado.
