Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The growth of the city of Rome was dependent on its ability to exploit successfully the human and natural resources of its hinterland. Although this eventually expanded to incorporate the entire Mediterranean seaboard, the resources of the Tiber Valley originally nourished the city and continued to do so despite the growth in imports from elswhere in the Roman world. This study examines the way the Tiber Valley functioned in terms of its economic and social geography, as evidenced by the organisation and dynamics of the brick industry.
