Original burials data for the book Epidemic Disease and Society in the Premodern Low Countries: Inequality and Community (Abingdon: Routledge, 2026)

This is the excel file to the original data that supports the content and analysis of my new book Epidemic Disease and Society in the Premodern Low Countries: Inequality and Community (Abingdon: Routledge, 2026). The file contains medieval sources for calculating mortality indexes and the raw data; a list of all the localities with 16th or 17th-century burials information and the raw burials data; the same localities with early modern population estimates; a list of pest houses and their dates of foundation; burials, marriages, and baptisms data for early modern Delft; and 2 reconstructions of plague costs for 2 households in the village of Dinther. This represents all the quantitative data collected for the book.
