England before 1250

England in 1250 was already a multicultural and multilingual society, and had been for centuries. We know this from various kinds of evidence:

  • archaeology (human remains and objects buried with people)
  • genetic biology (the study of DNA in human remains)
  • chemical analysis of skeletons (to show diet and drinking water)
  • histories written by people living at the time
