Resources on historical population history in ancient and early medieval west/central europe?

[marjaerwin]

Most of the work I’ve seen covers either classical Greece or classical Rome. At least Beloch and Russell tried to cover some of these areas, but Beloch tried to use Caesar’s figures, and Russell tried to use urban population as a proxy for total population, which could use adjustment for less urbanized areas. Hansen covers classical Greece and Greek colonies in depth, and has been an eye-opener, but doesn’t cover the rest.

I've posted about this before, but I'm reconsidering my earlier estimates. Thanks!
