ROME & THE ROMAN PROVINCES
An Archaeology of Colonial Transformations at Ancient Lattara By Benjamin P. Luley
Examines the impact of Roman rule on the city of Lattara, Gaul 500-200 BCE. With the decline in popularity of the term 'Romanization' as a way of analysing the changes in the archaeological record visible throughout the conquered provinces of the Roman Empire, scholars have increasingly turned to the important concept of 'identity'. This volume provides a detailed study of the ways in which the Celtic-speaking peoples of the ancient settlement of Lattara in Roman Mediterranean Gaul fashioned their lives under two centuries of Roman rule.

Each inscription is presented in the original (in Latin, except for eight in Greek), followed by a translation and informal commentary; they are linked by the narrative which they illustrate, and 236 are accompanied by photographs.
