Focusing on the barbarian migrations, this comprehensive survey explores their crucial influence on the fall of the Roman Empire and the emergence of early medieval Europe. Integrating both historical and archaeological evidence, it covers regions including Britain, Ireland, and North Africa, illustrating their interconnectedness. The narrative examines the turbulent fifth and sixth centuries, societal dynamics, political structures, and identity shifts during the migration period. Halsall argues that the migrations were a consequence of the Empire's decline, challenging conventional perspectives.
