Abstract: |
A skeleton was recovered from the eastern cloister alley at Fountains Abbey. Examination of the bones revealed that the interment was a male who was probably aged about 30--50 years at death. He suffered from hallux valgus, lateral deviation of the big toe, accompanied by a bunion at its base. This was almost certainly caused by habitual wearing of shoes which constricted the toes. |
