The XXI International Congress of Roman Frontier studies was hosted
by Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums in Newcastle upon Tyne
(Great Britain) in 2009, 60 years after the first Limeskongress
organised in that city by Eric Birley in 1949. Sixty years on,
delegates could reflect on how the Congress has grown and changed
over six decades and could be heartened at the presence of so many
young scholars and a variety of topics and avenues of research into
the army and frontiers of the Roman empire that would not have been
considered in 1949. Papers are organised into the same thematic
sessions as in the actual conference: Women and Families in the
Roman Army; Roman Roads; The Roman Frontier in Wales; The Eastern
and North African Frontiers; Smaller Structures: towers and
fortlets; Recognising Differences in Lifestyles through Material
Culture; Barbaricum; Britain; Roman Frontiers in a Globalised
World; Civil Settlements; Death and Commemoration; Danubian and
Balkan Provinces; Camps; Logistics and Supply; The Germanies and
Augustan and Tiberian Germany; Spain; Frontier Fleets. This
wide-ranging collection of papers enriches the study of Roman
frontiers in all their aspects.
