Klappentext
The material remains of Roman urban shops and workshops long played a marginalrole in classical archaeology, but in recent years, they have enjoyed a marked
increase of scholarly attention. Influenced by debates about the nature of ancient
urban economies, scholars began to study the archaeological evidence for urban
retail and manufacturing with an unprecedented vigour from the late 1990s onwards.
Since the turn of the millennium, scholars have increasingly begun to study shop-
and workshop design in relation to profit-oriented investment strategies, and to
explore the economic history of urban commercial landscapes. This volume discusses
the ways in which the study of urban shops and workshops has challenged our
conceptualization of urban economic history in the Roman world, and it explores
possible avenues to further deepen our understanding of the changing nature of Roman
urban commerce, and to bridge spatial and chronological distances between local sets
of evidence.
