Description: This module will provide an overview of the current archaeological approaches to the study of the Roman landscape in the western Mediterranean, with a focus upon Italy. The course will investigate issues of urbanism, connectivity, the relationship between periphery and core and the exploitation of resources in the Roman world from the early Imperial to the late antique period.

  • Specific themes that will be addressed include the importance of port networks in the Mediterranean area and the economy of the villa system. The module will introduce methodologies and techniques that are used, including excavation, topographic survey and geophysics. These themes will be explored through a series of case studies of recent excavations and discoveries. The topics covered include the following: 1. Studying the Roman landscape. 2. Field methodologies for investigating Roman archaeology. 3. Techniques of archaeological evaluation: Geophysics. 4. Geophysical methodologies for Roman archaeology. 5. Adaptive methodologies: Roman archaeological fieldwork in North Africa. 6. Archaeological computing: Applications for Roman archaeology. 7. Connectivity in the Roman Empire: Port networks: Portus. 8. Recording Roman architecture and topography. 9. Roman Urbanism. 10. The economy of the Roman villa. Topic summaries: 1. Studying the Roman landscape. A “plotted” history. The introductory topic will provide an overview of the development of Roman landscape studies in Italy. Through a series of case studies, beginning with the ground breaking South Etruria survey undertaken by John Ward-Perkins (British School at Rome), the module will look at the development of techniques to study the Roman landscape.

Field methodologies for investigating Roman archaeology This topic will introduce and assess the current methodologies used to undertake field archaeology focused on the investigation of Roman settlement in the western Mediterranean. The topic will be discussed through a series of case studies as well as describing excavation techniques and methodologies applied in Italy and the UK. 3. Techniques of archaeological evaluation: Geophysics Whilst geophysical survey has been available to the archaeologist since its first applications in the 1950’s, continuous advances in recent years have led to geophysical survey being an indispensable methodology for studying the landscape. The topics covered will include an introduction to commonly used geophysical techniques (Magnetometry, resistivity and Ground-Penetrating Radar) and some case studies of their successful application.

Geophysical methodologies for Roman archaeology Building upon the introduction to the techniques of geophysics, these will be illustrated through the examination of a series of case studies from recently investigated Roman sites.

Adaptive survey methodologies: Roman archaeological fieldwork in North Africa This topic will investigate current field survey research in North Africa (Libya, Tunisia, Egypt and Sudan). Through a series of case studies, the different responses and applications for geophysical survey will be investigated. 6.

Ports networks: Portus The Imperial harbour of Portus was critically important for supplying the city of Rome with foodstuffs and materials from across the Mediterranean from the first century AD onwards. It acted as both a point of export for supplies and products from the Tiber Valley to the north of Rome, and as major hub for the redistribution of goods from ports across the Mediterranean. The Portus Project, conducted by the British School at Rome and Southampton University, is guided by two main objectives: Firstly, it seeks to build a better understanding of Portus itself, as well as its relationship to Ostia, Rome, and the rest of the Mediterranean; Secondly, it aims to develop techniques that will enhance the ways in which highly complex classical sites can be investigated and recorded, and evaluate the impact of those techniques.

Recording Roman architecture and topography: Portus Following the introduction to the site of Portus, Rome’s imperial harbour, the topic will look generally at the rapidly evolving methods for topographical survey. These will be illustrated through the ongoing fieldwork at Portus where new techniques (eg. RTI) are being developed. Portus Keay, S., Earl, G., Hay, S., Kay, S., Ogden, J. and Strutt, K.

Roman Urbanism: New research at the Latin colony of Segni, Lazio. This topic will investigate Roman urbanism from the case study of the Segni Project. Since 2012 the British School at Rome and the Archaeological Museum of the Comune di Segni have been undertaking a research project aimed at evaluating and studying the wealth of archaeological remains in the city in order to understand the development of the settlement and place the known monuments into the wider context of the urban plan. The project has accomplished these aims by means of a combination of integrated geophysical survey, the study of historical documentation and a parallel program of targeted excavation and conservation.

The economy of the Roman villa: Excavations at Falacrinae – the birthplace of Vespasian. This module will look at the hinterland of Rome and the role of the Roman villa. Using as a case study the villa of San Lorenzo, the territory of the upper Tiber and Sabina will be examined. In 2008 the British School at Rome, University of Perugia and Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici del Lazio, began excavating a Roman villa, a few kilometres from the birth place of the Emperor Vespasian at the vicus of Falacrinae. The research has begun to shed light on the wider developments in the territory from the early Republican period through to late antiquity. Falacrinae Coarelli, F., Kay, S. and Patterson, H.
