The Making of the Middle Ages: An Atlas of Europe
An in-depth historical atlas that examines the history of Europe from circa 117 CE to 1000 CE. The focus of the book is not on the full period of medieval Europe but rather on how the Europe that we recognise today was formed during the early Middle Ages. It does so using fantastic maps, short and varied descriptive chapters, and many detailed illustrations.
John Haywood, who received a PhD in early medieval European history, is a veteran of creating historical atlases, and his latest book does not disappoint. The Making of the Middle Ages focuses on the period that has traditionally been described as the "Dark Ages", from the fall of the Roman Empire to the beginning of the High Medieval Period (c. 400-1000 CE). It is during this period that Europe as we know it today was formed as power transitioned from the ancient Mediterranean empires to the kingdoms of northern Europe.
This volume contains a plethora of beautifully designed maps. Each map examines one aspect of history, making the maps both in-depth and not overwhelming. Unlike some of Haywood's earlier atlases, there are more pages containing text than there are map pages: Between each map, there are two to three pages of text explaining the history that the maps examine.
The texts in this book are divided into many short chapters (they tend to be a couple of pages in length at most) that succinctly explain facets of medieval history, easily accessible to a general reader. All of the major kingdoms, wars, and events of the period are covered, from the fall of the Roman Empire and the Migration Age to the rise of the Frankish kingdoms, the German Empire, the Rus, and the Vikings.
Haywood explores cultural practices, such as "The Germanic Warrior", individual cities like Ravenna, or questions on mythology, such as his chapter titled "King Arthur, man or myth?" Equally, daily life is explored in chapters such as "Towns, Trade and Farming".
As medieval Europe is very much defined by its adoption of Christianity, there are many maps and chapters looking at Christian Europe from different angles: The spread of Christianity, the building of churches, and the clerical divisions of the late Roman Empire. Several chapters are devoted to the interaction between religion and science, as well as Monasticism.
While the book focuses on Christian Europe, several chapters and maps examine other religions, including the rise of Muhammad, the Islamic Civilisation, and the Jews in Europe under both Christian and Muslim rule.
The book also covers a range of topics that are often glanced over in histories of the European Middle Ages. I was surprised to find chapters on "Scandinavia before the Vikings" and multiple chapters and maps on the Magyars. These are not common topics in medieval studies, and covering them makes this book even more interesting to read.
The Making of the Middle Ages: An Atlas of Europe is well-written and accessible. The maps are of high quality, and the matte print makes for a pleasant reading experience. The text pages contain plenty of white space for illustrations, smaller maps, and photographs to complete the reading and learning experience. This is a highly recommended book, but it must be noted that the title is somewhat misleading, as it only covers the early Middle Ages, not the entirety of the period.

Angel announcing to high priest Zacharias the imminent birth of his son, John the Baptist, Ms. 2374, fol. 228r, from the Echmiadzin Gospels (10th century), late 6th century, Matenadaran, Yerevan, Armenia.
This miniature belongs to a series of paintings which were added to the Echmiadzin Gospels when Yovhannes made the manuscript in the late 10th century in the Noravank Monastery near Tatev. They are much older than the Echmiadzin Gospels themselves, dating to the 6th century. All of them deal with Epiphanies of divine beings to mortals. Here we see Zacharias in his high priest attire standing in front of the temple of Jerusalem, with the angel appearing in front of him with conspicuous peacock wings.

Milyen fordulatokban gazdag a mi szakmĂĄnk! Mennyi varĂĄzslatos esemĂ©ny megtörtĂ©nhet! Advent idĆszakĂĄban is egy alig hihetĆ eset tanĂși lehettĂŒnk. Az egĂ©sz törtĂ©net mĂ©g novemberre nyĂșlik vissza, amikor a cserĂ©pvĂĄri Ostromnap bĆröndkiĂĄllĂtĂĄsĂĄhoz kĂ©szĂŒlvĂ©n török kori leleteket gyƱjtöttem. Ekkor figyeltem fel arra, hogy az elmĂșlt Ă©vek fĂ©mkeresĆs anyagĂĄban a 2024-es leletek ĂĄllagvĂ©delme mĂ©g nem valĂłsult meg. ElhatĂĄroztam, hogy futok egy kört restaurĂĄtorainknĂĄl, lenne-e kapacitĂĄsuk Ă©s elsĆsorban nĂ©hĂĄny pĂ©nzĂ©rmĂ©t megtisztĂtanĂĄnak-e? Noha mĂĄr közelgett az Ă©v vĂ©ge, kollĂ©ganĆm, Krisztina lelkesen vĂĄllalkozott is rĂĄ.
âŠ
TörtĂ©netĂŒnk mĂĄsik szĂĄlĂĄnak szereplĆje Dmitrij, egy kĂŒlföldi egyetem kutatĂłja, aki Kelet-EurĂłpa oszmĂĄn-kori pĂ©nzleleteirĆl Ă©rtekezik. Ennek okĂĄn vetĆdött el december derekĂĄn a Herman OttĂł MĂșzeumba is. - Van-e török Ă©remanyagunk ĂĄsatĂĄsbĂłl, fĂ©mdetektorozĂĄsbĂłl, vagy gyƱjtemĂ©nyben? - HĂĄtâŠ(?), vakartuk meg a fejĂŒnket: korĂĄbbi ikonikus igazgatĂłnk Ă©s numizmatĂĄnk, Leszih Andor anno begyƱjtött egy szĂĄzdarabos, andornaktĂĄlyai (ami 100 esztendeje mĂ©g Borsod vĂĄrmegyĂ©hez tartozott) török Ă©remkollekciĂłt. Ăm ĂĄsatĂĄsbĂłl nincs, hiszen megyĂ©nk terĂŒlete mĂĄr jĂłrĂ©szt a Török HĂłdoltsĂĄgon kĂvĂŒl fekĂŒdt, bĂĄr a hĂłdĂtĂłk rendre dĂșltĂĄk vidĂ©kĂŒnket. KivĂ©ve talĂĄn CserĂ©pvĂĄrt, ami 91 esztendĆre tĂ©nylegesen török vĂ©gvĂĄr volt. Viszont innen sincs. Az eddig megtalĂĄlt Ă©rmĂ©k mindegyike a kora Ășjkori Habsburgok, RĂĄkĂłcziak, vagy Ă©ppen lengyel uralkodĂłk ĂĄltal kibocsĂĄtott pĂ©nzek voltak
.âŠ
Mit tehetett mĂĄst Dmitrij, elidĆzött Leszih Andor andornaki gyƱjtĂ©se mellett, de felmerĂŒlt benne nĂ©hĂĄny anyagtani kĂ©rdĂ©s, amit talĂĄn jobb, ha egy restaurĂĄtor vĂĄlaszol meg. Ăgy leballagott Krisztina restaurĂĄtormƱhelyĂ©be. Az ezĂŒsttartalomrĂłl szĂłlĂł diskurzusuk közben Dmitrij szeme sarkĂĄbĂłl megpillantotta az asztalra, pĂĄr nappal korĂĄbban kiterĂtett cserĂ©pvĂĄri Ă©rmĂ©ket, amiken mĂĄr megkezdĆdött a tisztĂtĂĄs folyamata. Ăs a veretek egyikĂ©n, egy vĂ©gletekig lekopott darabon megakadt a tekintete.
-Ez török!
Azonnal szĂłlt nekem is, mesĂ©ljem el, hogy Ă©s mikor voltak itt oszmĂĄnok, hogy nĂ©zett ki a vĂĄr, kik laktĂĄk a hĂłdoltsĂĄg idejĂ©n. MegnĂ©ztĂŒk mikroszkĂłp alatt: bizony az igencsak kopott veret peremĂ©n lĂ©vĆ indavonalakrĂłl nem is gondoltam volna, hogy az nem egy dĂszĂtĆ elem töredĂ©ke, hanem arab kalligrĂĄfia. Nos, a precĂz vizsgĂĄlat eredmĂ©nye egy oszmĂĄn para lett, amit IV. MurĂĄd szultĂĄn bocsĂĄtott ki a 17. szĂĄzadi KairĂłban! A szĂ©lesebb körben ismert török ezĂŒstpĂ©nz, az akcse mellett a para egy nehezebb, Egyiptomban elterjedt ezĂŒstcĂmlet volt, amit alkalomszerƱen balkĂĄni katonaelemek is hasznĂĄltak, ĂĄltaluk juthatott el a Török-birodalom Ă©szaki szĂ©lĂ©re is.
âŠ
Ăgy adĂłdott, hogy az Ă©ppen itt jĂĄrĂł Dmitrij, Ă©ppen akkor kereste fel Ă©s kĂ©rdezett valamit KrisztinĂĄtĂłl, amikor Ć Ă©ppen ezeket az Ă©rmĂ©ket tisztogatta Ă©s közel kĂ©t tucatnyi veret között Ă©ppen meglapult egy egyiptomi para is Ă©s Ă©ppen ez lett CserĂ©pvĂĄr elsĆ ismert török pĂ©nzĂ©rmĂ©je.SzĂłval semmi para, hiszen lelĆhelyeink Ă©s gyƱjtemĂ©nyeink bĂĄrmikor kĂ©pesek egĂ©szen merĂ©sz meglepetĂ©sekkel is elĆrukkolni.
