SUMMARY: Almost 200 horse bone measurements from 38 sites excavated across the city of London, dating to the period AD 1220–1900 were analysed. Results identified three main phases of size change: a reduction in size in the mid 14th to 15th century, and size increases in the mid 15th to 16th century and the 17th century. The decline in size testifies to the disruption of horse breeding in the wake of the Black Death, whilst the increases reflect purposeful attempts to increase the size of horses in England through a combination of regulated breeding and the importation of new bloodlines.

``好与强Horsis的血统'':现代伦敦早期马匹大小变化的动物考古学证据
摘要:分析了从公元1220年至1900年这段时期在伦敦市内发掘的38个地点的近200匹马骨。结果确定了尺寸变化的三个主要阶段:14至15世纪中叶尺寸减小,以及15至16世纪中叶和17世纪尺寸增大。尺寸的减少证明了黑死病后马匹繁殖的中断,而数量的增加则反映了有目的的尝试,即通过规范的繁殖和输入新的血统来增加英格兰马匹的大小。
