Scottish medieval sources are relatively scarce compared with England and price data are correspondingly scarce and scattered. The project team combed the available sources for price data, concentrating on accounts and legal records. The project also made considerable use of the unpublished Aberdeen Burgh Records.Main Topics: For each price, information was sought for the following fields: year, place, commodity, quantity, total price, unit price and source. A memo field was established to permit additional information to be recorded. The fragmented information was collected on computer and re-arranged into a chronologically ordered series by commodity. Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research. 1985 - 199001 January 198501 January 1990 Scotland Text units (documents/chapters/words)NationalPrices Prices of commodities in Scotland in 1263-1542.
