{"product_id":"late-roman-towns-in-britain-adam-rogers-9781107698796","title":"Late Roman Towns in Britain","description":"In this book, Adam Rogers examines the late Roman phases of towns in Britain. Critically analysing the archaeological notion of decline, he focuses on public buildings, which played an important role, administrative and symbolic, within urban complexes. Arguing against the interpretation that many of these monumental civic buildings were in decline or abandoned in the later Roman period, he demonstrates that they remained purposeful spaces and important centres of urban life. Through a detailed assessment of the archaeology of late Roman towns, this book argues that the archaeological framework of decline does not permit an adequate and comprehensive understanding of the towns during this period. Moving beyond the idea of decline, this book emphasises a longer-term perspective for understanding the importance of towns in the later Roman period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Rogers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107698790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107698796\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/02\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.53d","brand":"Adam Rogers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47423402344703,"sku":"9781107698796","price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_744a6c13-5e48-432f-b962-53919aa17750.jpg?v=1761528567","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/late-roman-towns-in-britain-adam-rogers-9781107698796","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
