The Material Life of Roman Slaves is a major contribution to
scholarly debates on the archaeology of Roman slavery. Rather than
regarding slaves as irretrievable in archaeological remains, the
book takes the archaeological record as a key form of evidence for
reconstructing slaves' lives and experiences. Interweaving
literature, law, and material evidence, the book searches for ways
to see slaves in the various contexts - to make them visible where
evidence tells us they were in fact present. Part of this project
involves understanding how slaves seem irretrievable in the
archaeological record and how they are often actively, if
unwittingly, left out of guidebooks and scholarly literature.
Individual chapters explore the dichotomy between visibility and
invisibility and between appearance and disappearance in four
physical and social locations - urban houses, city streets and
neighborhoods, workshops, and villas.
