Roman Infrastructure in Early Medieval Britain: The Adaptations of the Past in Text and Stone - Paperback

by Mateusz Fafinski (Author)

Early Medieval Britain was more Roman than we think. The Roman Empire left vast infrastructural resources on the island. These resources lay buried not only in dirt and soil, but also in texts, laws, chronicles, charters, even churches and landscapes. This book uncovers them and shows how they shaped Early Medieval Britain.
