Roman Crete

By I.F. Sanders

This work is unique as a comprehensive survey of Crete from its conquest by Metellus in 69 B.C. to its fall to the Arabs in 824 A.D. Epigraphic, litrary and archaeological evidence are combined to present as complete a picture as they allow of the administration and organisation of the Province and the cities at this period. Chapters on the economy, religion, art and architecture include detailed discussion of individual monuments and of all early Christian Basilicas. Central to the book is a Gazetteer of all known sites and monuments drawn from published work and the author's own extensive fieldwork.
