Abstract/Summary

This is the second volume of New Visions of the Countryside of Roman Britain. It considers the rural economy of Roman Britain through the lenses of the principal occupations of agriculture and rural industry. For the first time the wealth of faunal and archaeobotanical have been drawn together alongside material culture and structural evidence to provide a social context for rural production and consumption, and an understanding of how resources moved across the province to feed and support military and civilian populations.
