An Urban Geography of the Roman World, 100 BC to AD 300
ISBN: 9781784914721 / Angielski / Miękka / 826 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This book provides a new account of the urbanism of the Roman world between 100 BC and AD 300. To do so, it draws on a combination of textual sources and archaeological material to provide a new catalogue of cities, calculates new...
