The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers
Breeze, D. 2018. The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers. Theoretical Roman Archaeology Journal, 1(1): 1, pp. 1–17, DOI: https://doi.org/10.16995/traj.212 RESEARCH ARTICLE The Value of Studying Roman Frontiers David Breeze Retired, GB [email protected] Modern cross-border studies generally pay scant attention to the frontier works themselves. Yet analysis of these can tell us much about the relationships between Rome and her neighbours. In spite of that, and their popularity with a wider public, Roman frontier studies have fallen out of favour in mainstream academic circles in the UK. This paper seeks to emphasise that the study of these frontiers is essential to a balanced understanding of the Roman Empire and its relationship with its neighbours. The importance of understanding the detail before creating the bigger picture is underlined, as is the necessity to examine other frontiers than those in Britain, both elsewhere in the Roman Empire and at other times. Keywords: Roman frontiers; Roman army; warfare; Hadrian’s Wall; Dacia; indigenous population of Britain Introduction It is a truism that the study of Roman Britain is divided between those who study the civilian south and oth- ers who concentrate on the military north and west. Very few manage to bridge this divide and work in both areas. Nor does there seem to be much communication across the divide. In some ways, the post-colonial agenda has exacerbated this division as imperialism, colonialism, violence and slavery are often dismissed as ‘bad’ and therefore not worthy of study; in such a climate, it is unfortunate that the Roman army operated in all four areas. -
