Polyptychs & early medieval inventories

For an initial introduction to polyptyques and inventories from the early middle ages in the West, see the following presentation of Carolingian polyptyques, for polyptyques between the Loire and the Rhine, as well as theintroduction of Bartoli Langeli.

Heir to Carolingian polyptyques, the famous Domesday Book (1086) is introduced in this excellent presentation on the site of the National Archive.

It is also possible to find photographs and translations of many of its folios; targeted searches are possible by means of the index. Additional information concerning the contents and the value of this document are available on many sites, in particular: http://www.domesdaybook.net/.
