Rivers and Waterways in the Roman World: Empire of Water

Andrew Tibbs - Personal Name; Peter B. Campbell - Personal Name;

This book explores the historical, archaeological, and cultural significance of rivers and inland waterways throughout the Roman Empire. It brings together interdisciplinary research, theoretical perspectives, archaeological investigations, and case studies to examine how rivers functioned as important routes for transportation, communication, trade, and military activities. The book covers various geographical regions, including the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and Britain, highlighting the role of waterways in connecting settlements, supporting commercial networks, and shaping the development of Roman communities. It also examines river crossings, navigable canals, underwater archaeological discoveries, and the relationship between waterways, cultural identities, and military frontiers. In addition, the volume introduces innovative research methods, including digital technologies, scientific analysis, geoarchaeology, and underwater surveying, to improve the identification and interpretation of archaeological sites. By demonstrating the importance of inland waterways beyond traditional maritime studies, the book provides valuable insights into transportation networks, economic activities, and the interaction between human societies and river environments in the Roman world. It serves as a useful reference for archaeologists, historians, geographers, and researchers interested in ancient transportation, river archaeology, and the history of the Roman Empire.
