Kreiner researches and teaches the history of Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Her new book, Legions of Pigs in the Early Medieval West, examines pigs as both objects and subjects, to measure the impact that this species had on early medieval culture and to highlight the surprising ways that early medieval societies handled their lived environments.
