Assessment of biological remains from excavations at 12-18 Swinegate, 8 Grape Lane, and 14, 18, 20 and 22 Back Swinegate/Little Stonegate, York (YAT/Yorkshire Museum sitecodes 1989-90.28 and 1990.1)

Summary Samples of raw sediment, sieved residues and vertebrate remains obtained from sieved samples and by hand-collection from Roman to early modern deposits in the Swinegate area of York have been assessed to establish what further bioarchaeological work may be required. A programme of selected analyses is recommended, concentrating on organic levels in the early post-Conquest period and on a limited number of bone groups.
