      This whole thread, but especially this. The ppl we know about, the aristocracy, went right on marrying their relatives, often with dispensations. The majority of the population? No evidence. I haven’t read the paper but based on press coverage there’s a GIGO thing going on here.https://twitter.com/AdmiralHip/status/1192877317732868097 …

      But the fact that their data cannot account for peasantry of which we have very spotty demographic marriage data, then this whole study is ridiculous.

      And the same is true all over Medieval Eurasia. I can say that for certain for Syria where women are mentioned rarely and then mostly from elite families.

      One day my book chapter dealing with the absence of women in the central sources will come out. There is a working paper on the isse and I'll just leave that here.http://dyntran.hypotheses.org/1623

      With my own research, women in early medieval Ireland and Britain are very largely absent, even high-status women. We get names and not much else. Peasant data is non-existent.

      Here it's mostly urban too. I would say there might be only one source that goes against this trend and the data we can get out of it is great but also patch and helps only for a twenty year period.

      Yeah demographic data is very limited even later, the Domesday book is great but lots of gaps there too.

          Understandably consid. cost of paper, personnel, preservation, etc. I had a look at some 17-cent. loan books at @TCDResearchColl and someone used them to do calculations! And ripped out half pages! And that in an institut. revolving around paper and books.

          Yeah the preservation of older knowledge in books goes only as far as how much later readers considered that stuff valuable. How many MSS were ripped up to make new ones? Probably countless.
