Dr Rob Collins and the curators of the remarkable collections from
Hadrian's Wall present a striking new contribution to understanding
the archaeology of a Roman frontier. This highly-illustrated volume
showcases the artefacts recovered from archaeological
investigations along Hadrian's Wall in order to examine the daily
lives of those living along the Northern Frontier of the Roman
Empire. Presented by theme, no other book offers such a diverse and
thorough range of the rich material culture of the Wall. The
accompanying text provides an ethnographic perspective, guiding us
through the everyday lives of the people of frontier communities,
from the Commanding Officer to the local farmer. This holistic view
allows us an insight into the homes and communities, how people
dressed, what they ate and drank, their religions and beliefs,
domestic and military forms of security, and how they conducted
their business and pleasure.
