Eastern Wines on Western Tables: Consumption, Trade and Economy in
Ancient Italy is an interdisciplinary and multifaceted study
concerning wine commerce and the Roman economy during Classical
antiquity. Wine was one of the main consumption goods in the
Mediterranean during antiquity, and the average Roman adult male
probably consumed between 0,5 - 1 litre of it per day. It is
therefore clear that the production and trading of wine was
essential for the Roman economy. This book demonstrates that wines
from the Eastern Mediterranean and the Aegean region in particular,
played a crucial part in wine commerce. Moreover, it sheds new
light on economic dilemmas that have long puzzled scholars, such as
growth and market integration during antiquity.
