Succinct analysis and detailed case-studies, based on recent
archaeological research, are the basis of this social and economic
study of the Roman Imperial frontiers. It examines the concept of
"frontier" within the Roman Empire, from the first century AD to
the sixth, suggesting that it was a fuzzy set of interlocking zones
- political, military, judicial and financial. Elton focuses on how
the frontier worked and how it affected life for all those in the
frontier zone, not just the Roman army. Each chapter outlines a
major problem and illustrates it with examples from different
regions and periods. The text examines the key features and periods
of the Roman Empire in the light of the most recent archaeological
research. The author includes an analysis of the acquisition of the
empire and the ways in which it was ruled, and also relationships
with allied kingdoms. Finally, he highlights the central importance
of trade by special consideration of Palmyra.
