Rivers and Waterways in the Roman World brings together cross-disciplinary chapters focussing on theoretical approaches, new digital and scientific methods and analytical techniques, and related surveying and excavation case studies to examine the Romans' extensive use of rivers and inland waterways around the Empire. Roman seafaring is well studied, but this book expands our knowledge of Roman transport, communication, and trade networks inland. The book highlights the challenges of archaeological work in the dynamic environments of rivers and waterways and showcases the use of new methodologies, including the increasing availability and accessibility of digital technologies that have led to a growth in the development and application of new archaeological and analytical techniques, as well as the discovery of new archaeological sites, many of which were previously inaccessible. This book is for archaeologists, historians, classicists, and geographers with an interest in the history and archaeology of the Roman Empire. 2024-03-06T10:37:49Z 2024-03-06T10:37:49Z 2024 chapter 9781032234403 9781032234410 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/88198 eng application/pdf Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International 9781003277613_10.4324_9781003277613-18.pdf Taylor & Francis Rivers and Waterways in the Roman World Routledge 10.4324/9781003277613-18 10.4324/9781003277613-18 7b3c7b10-5b1e-40b3-860e-c6dd5197f0bb 1671eaa6-a439-44b2-afc9-c47fbcadb5a4 9781032234403 9781032234410 Routledge 18 open access
