The last several decades have seen a dramatic increase in interest
in the Roman period on the island of Crete. Ongoing and some
long-standing excavations and investigations of Roman sites and
buildings, intensive archaeological survey of Roman areas, and
intensive research on artefacts, history, and inscriptions of the
island now provide abundant data for assessing Crete alongside
other Roman provinces. New research has also meant a re-evaluation
of old data in light of new discoveries, and the history and
archaeology of Crete is now being rewritten. The breadth of topics
addressed by the papers in this volume is an indication of Crete's
vast archaeological potential for contributing to current academic
issues such as Romanisation/acculturation, climate and landscape
studies, regional production and distribution, iconographic trends,
domestic housing, economy and trade, and the transition to the
late-Antique era. These papers confirm Crete's place as a fully
realised participant in the Roman world over the course of many
centuries but also position it as a newly discovered source of
academic inquiry.
