{"product_id":"the-topography-and-the-landscape-florin-fodorean-9781407311173","title":"The Topography and the Landscape of Roman Dacia","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this volume the author presents a full study of the topography and landscape of Roman Dacia (roughly present-day north-central and western Romania). The work begins with investigations of the Roman road network and a discussion of the Roman geographical perception of Dacia before and after the conquest, which entailed the construction of the first roads. The author then examines the ancient sources concerning the roads of Roman Dacia, using the 'Tabula Peutingeriana', itineraries and other literary sources, the archaeological remains, and the 'Tabula Traiana', to reconstruct the main roads of Roman Dacia. Further chapters widen the topic by discussing roads and rural settlements, focussing on Potaissa and its surroundings, and on Napoca and beyond, with an excursus on Roman bridges. These detailed studies enable the author to suggest a recreation of the landscape of Roman Dacia, using a combination of historical 19th-century cartography, digital data and GIS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Florin Fodorean\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1407311174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781407311173\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 06\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 147\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 8.20w x 0.40d","brand":"Florin Fodorean","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44138576019711,"sku":"9781407311173","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb12a008-e46c-4b22-955b-c647e89d76f6.jpg?v=1687900404","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-topography-and-the-landscape-florin-fodorean-9781407311173","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
