Else Very light shelfwear to DJ.; 0.79 x 8.43 x 5.67 Inches; 207 pages; The role of women in Roman culture and society was a paradoxical one. They enjoyed social material and financial independence yet they were denied basic constitutional rights. Although Roman history is not short of powerful female figures such as Agrippina and Livia their power stemmed from their associations with great men and was not officially recognized. Ariadne Staples' book examines how women in Rome were perceived both by themselves and by men through women's participation in Roman religion as Roman religious ritual provided the single public arena where women played a significant formal role. From Good Goddess to Vestal Virgins argues that the ritual roles played out by women were vital in defining them sexually and that these sexually defined categories spilled over into other aspects of Roman culture including political activity. Staples provides an arresting and original analysis of the role of women in Roman society which challenges traditionally held views and provokes further questions. . 0415132339 . Routledge hardcover

20083767Oxbow Books. 2008. Softcover. Fine. These ten papers from two Theoretical Roman Archaeology Conference 2007 sessions bring together a growing body of new archaeological evidence in an attempt to reconsider the way in which the Roman army was provisioned. Clearly the adequate supply of food was essential to the success of the Roman military. But what was the nature of those supply networks Did the army rely on imperial supply lines from the continent as certainly appears to be the case for some commodities or were provisions requisitioned from local agricultural communities If the latter was the case was unsustainable pressure placed on such resources and how did local communities respond Alternatively did the early stages of conquest include not only the development of a military infrastructure but also an effective supply-chain network based on contracts Beyond the initial stages of conquest how were provisioning arrangements maintained in the longer term did supply chains remain static or did they change over time and if so what precipitated those changes Addressing such questions is critical if we are to understand the nature of Roman conquest and the extent of interaction between indigenous communities and the Roman army. Case studies come from Roman Britain Alchester Cheshire Dorset France the Netherlands and the Rhine Delta looking at evidence from animal products military settlements the size of cattle horses pottery and salt. The editors also provide a review of current research and suggest a future agenda for economic and environmental research.; 160 pages . 1842173235 . Oxbow Books paperback
