Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways.

You have in›uenced my diligence by your expressions of praise, both in your own name and in the names of your most learned friends (whom you also have in very large number). As a result, I feel that I am much more eager to pursue the investigation set forth on this subject; I would already have completed it had the abundance of waters from heaven not shown itself opposed to my own watery task. But you should not think that I have been completely idle: indeed, although I was not able to approach for a second time the sources of the Marcia and Claudia, at some distance from me, and not able therefore to follow up my ideas by surer rea- soning, not uselessly, perhaps, will I show you that I have been engaged in the more immediate neighborhood of that aqueduct introduced by Pope Sixtus and called the Acqua Felice from his own name before his ponti‹- 19 Aqueduct Hunting in the Seventeenth Century: Raffaele Fabretti's De aquis et aquaeductibus veteris Romae Harry B.

Typeset by Academic + Technical Typesetting, Bristol, Great Britain Printed by Berforts Information Press, Eynsham, Oxford, Great Britain The port system of Imperial Rome Simon Keay INTRODUCTION ortus, the maritime port of Imperial Rome, was located some 30 km to the southwest of P Rome, and just under 3 km to the north of Ostia at the mouth of the Tiber. It was an artiﬁcial port that was begun under Claudius, was substantially enlarged under Trajan, and underwent continued further development in the late antique period. There is little doubt that the prime purpose of Portus was to help satiate the huge demand of the city of Rome for foodstuffs and material (Tchernia and Viviers 2000: 779–89). While Ostia was clearly an important nexus of traders, shippers and representatives of the state involved in supplying Rome with food, Portus was the maritime hub of Rome that actually enabled cargoes to be unloaded and stored before reaching the City.1 The view underlying this paper is that the full implications of the establishment of Portus for our understanding of the mechanisms of how Rome was supplied have yet to be appreciated fully.

Beck, Munich . pages with illustrations, maps. In ,Arnold Esch published his book »Römische Straßen in ihrer Landschaft.Das Nachleben antiker Strassen (sic) um Rom. Mit Hinweisen zur Begehung im Gelände«(Mainz ). Here, Esch enumerates five sections of Roman roads in CentralItaly: the Via Appia, the Via Cassia, theVia Flaminia, the Via Sala- ria and the Via Valeria. These descriptions follow the same concept: awalking route follows the trace of the former road, based on detailed survey-maps; in add- ition, ameticulous description is given of the ancient history and archaeologyofthe road section and the surrounding landscape. The publication is richly illus- trated: besides thesurvey-maps, there are also photos of the landscape and the road sections themselves and sometimes also illustrations of objects situated along the roads in present or in original times. »Zwischen Antike und Mittelalter« takes adifferent form. It is actually divided into two independentparts, although the title only suggests one. The first part is a general historical overview concerning the decline and fall of the entire Roman road system in Central Italy; the 512 Besprechungen second part is awalking tour along the Via Amerina, andolive oil – up untilthe fifthcentury corn wasimport- described in the same way as the Roman road sections in ed from Africa –,but some centuries later, Rome was »Römische Straßen«.

BADGER All Rights Reserved Made in the United States of America The Gorham Press, Boston, U. S. A. Uxori mea hunc librum dedico INTRODUCTION purpose in writing this book is not to present anything new about Travel Among the Ancient Romans but to put into one volume the essential facts connected with this topic. Not only have I gone to the original sources in collecting my material but I have also freely used many manuals and larger works dealing with different phases of this subject. I take pleasure in thanking Drs. C. W. Keyes and G. A. Harrer, members of the Classical Department of the University of North Carolina, for reading my manuscript and making many valuable suggestions. The "Extent of Travel" together with its subdi- visions in the first chapter is merely an epitome of what is found on this topic in Leonard A. Magnus' Translation of Friedlander's Roman Life and Man- ners. This courtesy was granted me by E. P. Button and Co. Through the kindness of Longmans, Green and Co. the illustrations, with two exceptions, found in this book are photostatic reproductions from Rich's Dictionary of Roman and Greek Antiquities.
