This open access book demonstrates the application of simulation modelling and network analysis techniques in the field of Roman studies. It summarizes and discusses the results of a 5-year research project carried out by the editors that aimed to apply spatial dynamical modelling to reconstruct and understand the socio-economic development of the Dutch part of the Roman frontier (limes) zone, in particular the agrarian economy and the related development of settlement patterns and transport networks in the area. The project papers are accompanied by invited chapters presenting case studies and reflections from other parts of the Roman Empire focusing on the themes of subsistence economy, demography, transport and mobility, and socio-economic networks in the Roman period. The book shows the added value of state-of-the-art computer modelling techniques and bridges computational and conventional approaches. Topics that will be of particular interest to archaeologists are the question of (forced) surplus production, the demographic and economic effects of the Roman occupation on the local population, and the structuring of transport networks and settlement patterns. For modellers, issues of sensitivity analysis and validation of modelling results are specifically addressed. This book will appeal to students and researchers working in the computational humanities and social sciences, in particular, archaeology and ancient history.

Zwischen dem 5. und 7. Jh. n. Chr. erfasste den Westen des Imperium Romanum ein tiefgreifender Strukturwandel, der in der älteren Forschung weitgehend als durch die Einfälle barbarischer Völker induzierter Auflösungsprozess der römischen Ordnung angesehen wurde. In aktuellen Diskussionen wird hingegen betont, dass das Römische Reich der späten Kaiserzeit selbst starke Transformationstendenzen generierte, die einen langfristigen Prozess der Umstrukturierung in Gang setzten: Unter der vermeintlich einheitlichen Oberfläche eines umfassenden politischen und kulturellen Ordnungsrahmens kam es auch von innen heraus zu Veränderungen, durch die insbesondere auf regionaler Ebene Gruppenzugehörigkeiten und kulturelle Muster der kollektiven Identitätsbildung neu definiert wurden. Die Beiträge des kulturwissenschaftlich ausgerichteten Bandes wollen diesen Strukturwandel anhand der Region Gallien verdeutlichen, die ein quellenmäßig besonders gut bezeugtes Beispiel für diesen Transformationsprozess darstellt. Ihr Anliegen ist es dabei, historische und literaturwissenschaftliche Ansätze miteinander zu verbinden, um praxeologische wie diskursiv vermittelte Formen kollektiver Identitätsstiftung in ihrer wechselseitigen Bedingtheit zu analysieren.

The period from the fifth century to the eighth century witnessed massive political, social and religious change in Europe. Geographical and historical thought, long rooted to Roman ideologies, had to adopt the new perspectives of late antiquity. In the light of expanding Christianity and the evolution of successor kingdoms in the West, new historical discourses emerged which were seminal in the development of medieval historiography. Taking their lead from Orosius in the early fifth century, Latin historians turned increasingly to geographical description, as well as historical narrative, to examine the world around them. This book explores the interdependence of geographical and historical modes of expression in four of the most important writers of the period: Orosius, Jordanes, Isidore of Seville and the Venerable Bede. It offers important readings of each by arguing that the long geographical passages with which they were introduced were central to their authors' historical assumptions and arguments.
