Towns in Roman BritainDescription
Towns in Roman Britain is an introduction to this subject. Many of Britain's towns and cities originated in the Roman period, established as part of a systematic programme to urbanise the island. Why imperial Rome initiated this programme is the first of many topics examined in this book. Using both archaeological and literary evidence, the author traces their history and development from their genesis in the first century to their gradual decline and then desertion some four hundred years later.Category
