Studies of the People and Objects of the Roman Frontiers

Description

Life in the Limes is divided into thematic sections, celebrating the contributions of Lindsay Allason-Jones presented on the occasion of her birthday and retirement. Life in the Limes highlights aspects of her research interests; from social and industrial aspects of northern frontier forts (military sculptural stones, religious, cultural, and economic connotations of armour finds); the economic and ideological penetration of romanitas in the frontiers; evidence of trans-frontier interactions and invisible people; the role of John Clayton in the exploration and preservation of Hadrian's Wall and its material culture; the detailed consideration of individual objects, and a discussion of the widespread mice in Roman Art.
