The book discusses the history and the archaeology of Jerusalem in
the Roman period (70-400 CE) following a chronological order, from
the establishment of the Tenth Roman Legion's camp on the ruins of
Jerusalem in 70 CE, through the foundation of Aelia Capitolina by
Hadrian, in around 130 CE, and the Christianization of the
population and the cityscape in the fourth century. Cemeteries
around the city, the rural hinterland, and the imperial roads that
led to and from Aelia Capitolina are discussed as well. Due to the
paucity of historical sources, the book is based on archaeological
remains, suggesting a reconstruction of the city's development and
a discussion of the population's identity.
