Crisis mortality, a dramatic but temporary increase in mortality rate resulting from a single factor, is an important phenomenon in many populations. This project integrates paleodemographic and isotope analyses to examine temporal changes in diet and migration at the time of the 14th-century Black Death and the interactions among diet, migration, demography, health, sex, and socioeconomic status in thecontext of the medieval mortality crises of famine and plague. This project will highlight the cultural and social aspects that affect crisis events and their outcomes. Clarifying how dietary resources were distributed in the medieval period will allow for an examination of the ways in which general resource availability in a population does not necessarily translate into widespread benefits in the face of socially-, economically-, or politically-prescribed patterns of access to those resources (Baro and Deubel, 2006; Wisner et al., 2004). This project will also contribute to an understanding of long-term changes in migration in the context of disaster and particularly the health consequences thereof. The results of thisproject can aid predictions about what might happen in future demographic crises.

危机死亡率是由单一因素引起的死亡率急剧但暂时的增加，是许多人口中的一个重要现象。该项目整合了古人口和同位素分析，以研究14世纪黑死病发生时饮食和移民的时间变化，以及中世纪饥荒和瘟疫死亡危机背景下饮食，移民，人口，健康，性别和社会经济地位之间的相互作用。该项目将突出影响危机事件及其后果的文化和社会方面。阐明中世纪时期饮食资源的分布方式，将有助于研究在社会、经济或政治规定的获取这些资源的模式下，人口中的一般资源可用性不一定转化为广泛的利益的方式（Baro和Deubel，2006年;维斯纳等人，2004年）。该项目还将有助于了解灾害背景下移徙的长期变化，特别是灾害对健康的影响。该项目的结果可以帮助预测未来人口危机可能发生的情况。
