Although the existence of these households has long been known this is the first time they have been comprehensively studied. Until recently, the typicality of letter-writing evidence from the first century fort at Vindolanda near Hadrian's wall has been disputed, and therefore its applicability to frontiers more widely has been questioned. This book therefore surveys and critically evaluates three types of evidence for auxiliary commander households from across Europe and North Africa: praetorium archaeology; Latin inscriptions on stone; and the first century letters of the officers' households at Vindolanda. By bringing together perspectives from these three evidence-types the book gives insight into how these households, including women and children, were constituted and the likely roles of different household members living on the frontiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claire Millington\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1407361430\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781407361437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports (Oxford) Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 0.48d","brand":"Claire Millington","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906746863871,"sku":"9781407361437","price":83.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e2022821-18e3-4fe6-bc67-c7df83cda89c.jpg?v=1748771305","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/military-households-of-roman-auxiliary-claire-millington-9781407361437","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
