I found this years ago, then lost it and was unable to find it
despite numerous searches. I managed to find it again this morning,
and since some people were interested in equipment lists, I thought
I'd post it here.
It's a list of prices and costs for things in Anglo Saxon England
and Viking age Europe. It's not that extensive, but it does give
a good idea of how prices varied from place to place (cost of
swords varied by as much as twenty-fold between central Europe
and Britain).
There's also some good fines listed for criminal acts, including
such things as "Binding an innocent ceorl and shaving him like a priest".
