Rather than considering traditional political developments alone, the book weaves together discussion of the spatial aspects of Lombard settlement; their impact on urban and rural landscapes; their responses to religious praxis and belief, and through this, the creation of a revived identity in a new context, which was embodied in law--one of their most enduring legacies. The book restores the Lombards to a position of central importance in early medieval Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Heath\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1802702695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781802702699\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e ARC Humanities Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Christopher Heath","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47637507539199,"sku":"9781802702699","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6ed8bcde-0924-42a2-b83f-bb599e7b2bff.jpg?v=1765116648","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-lombards-in-italy-christopher-heath-9781802702699","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
