In recent years the development of new methods of archaeological survey have transformed our understanding on Roman towns in Italy. This talk will discuss the methods used and illustrate some of the new discoveries, discussing their importance for our understanding of Italy’s rich cultural heritage.
Martin Millett is Emeritus Professor of Classical Archaeology at the University of Cambridge and President of the Society of Antiquaries of London. His work focues both on the impact of Roman imperialism on indigenous societies and on the application of survey methods in archaeology. He has led fieldwork and excavation projects in Britain, Spain, Portugual and Italy. In Italy he has led projects at a variety of Roman town sites as well as at Portus, the harbour of Imperial Rome. He is currently working on a new synthesis of Roman Britain for Princeton University Press.
