One of the more directly exercised aspects of Roman imperialism was the reorganisation and redistribution of lands and territories of the conquered societies.
Thanks to new excavations, open-access monographies/journals, online databases and cartographic resources, the underlying archaeological data which makes up said territories (both pre- and post-conquest) is becoming increasingly accessible, thus opening the door for comparative analyses.
In this lunchtime talk I will outline a cross-regional, diachronic project focussing on the practices of Roman imperialism in the archaeological landscape on one hand but also to what extent pre-Roman structures may have influenced provincial settlement patterns on the other.
Moreover, I will discuss the possibilities and limitations of such data-driven supra-regional analyses and finally I will briefly explain the context of my stay here in Amsterdam and how it fits in with my (planned) career trajectory.
