- Dorestad abstract "The Early-Medieval site of Dorestad was located southeast of the province of Utrecht in the Netherlands close to the modern day town of Wijk bij Duurstede. The township was established at the base of a Roman fortress in the 7th Century and was situated near the northernmost Northern branch of the Rhine which splits into the Lek and the Kromme Rijn.The settlement was included in the Northeastern shipping routes due to its proximity to the fork in the Rhine. It allowed the city to be connected to the shipping trade in Germany (via Lek) and England, North of France, Northern Netherlands, North of Germany and Scandinavia (via Kromme Rijn).Initially, the Franks and the Frisians, fought for control of the territory; however, the Franks quickly won out and gained control of the Frisian Coast.Dorestad flourished between the 7th Century and the middle of the 9th Century. The settlement was well known for minting coins under the control of a multitude of Frankish rulers. It is generally believed that the township reached its peak around the 820’s – 830’s and declined considerably thereafter. It is thought that the decline occurred due to Viking invasions as well as a decline in the economy. By the 9th Century, it seems that the need for international trade was waning as regional trade gained importance. The majority of the information known about the city comes from a combination of historical documents, archeological finds and numismatic evidence.".
