Feeding the Roman army

"These ten papers bring together a growing body of new archaeological evidence in an attempt to reconsider the ways in which the Roman army was provisioned with basic foodstuffs. Did the army rely on long distance supply lines, or were basic provisions aquired regionally or from local communities? To what extent was the production and supply of food to the Roman army situational and affected by the very nature of those foods? This volume explores these types of issues, using case studies from Roman Britain, northern France, the Netherlands and the Rhine Delta."--BOOK JACKET.
