"A comprehensive archaeological survey of the city of Rome from prehistory to the early medieval period. Illustrated throughout with full-color maps, drawings, photos, and 3D reconstructions, this two-volume edition features the latest discoveries and scholarship, with new descriptions of more than 500 monuments, including the Sanctuary of Vesta, the domus Augusti, and the Mausoleum of Augustus. For scholars, students, and anyone interested in the history of the city of Rome. The Atlas examines the city's topography and political-administrative divisions, trade and economic production, and social landscape and infrastructure - from residential neighborhoods and gardens to walls, roads, aqueducts, and sewers. It describes the fourteen regions of Rome and the urban history of each in unprecedented detail, and includes profiles and reconstructions of major monuments and works of art. Incorporates the most current archaeological findings and uses the latest mapping technologies."--Provided by publisher.
