Aspects of industry in Roman Yorkshire and the North by J Price( )

13 editions published between 2002 and 2022 in English and held by 984 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

At the frontiers of the Roman Empire, military settlements had a profound influence on local crafting traditions. Legions were not just fighting units - they contained a large number of craftsmen, and the fortress would have been a centre of manufacturing activity. A timber legionary fortress, for example, required vast numbers of nails, many of which would have been made by legionary smiths on site, and an army of thousands would require many more pots, shoes and tents than could be produced by local domestic potters and leather workers. But can all developments in local craft and industry be seen as a result of the appearance of the Roman army? The ten papers in this volume focus on craft production in Roman Yorkshire, and the evidence for the role of the army in local manufacturing activities. Several papers examine broad questions surrounding the organisation and scale of production in urban and rural areas. Others consider the local evidence for individual materials and production processes, including those associated with pottery, glass, copper alloys, non-ferrous metals, leather, jet, and building stone.

North East Yorkshire - a later prehistoric and Roman landscape : studies of settlement, economy, burial and the evidence they provide for cultural change following the Roman occupation by P. R Wilson( Book )

2 editions published in 1995 in English and held by 2 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

The evidence for settlement, economy, and burial is examined from the Late Bronze Age to the Late Roman period in the quadrant of Yorkshire north and north-east of York, with the data presented as a gazetteer. The pre-Roman situation is considered with particular reference to evidence for continuity and/or change as a background to developments recognised through the Roman period. Changes occurring during the Roman period are considered and their causes assessed, along with the evidence for intrusive and native components in the observed processes. Despite the importance of York in the Roman period it is shown not to act as a catalyst for extensive Romanisation in the region. It is suggested that the impact of York is restricted by the limited natural resources and trading opportunities provided in its hinterland. The broad conclusions are that the processes of 'Romanisation' were impeded by the poverty of the region and the marginal nature of much of the study area with respect to settlement and agriculture. It is argued that for much of the Roman period two systems, one largely 'Roman' and the other largely 'native', operated in the region with limited interaction. In rural parts of the study area Romanised models, where adopted, are suggested to be subject to local influences and in fact represent products of the two-way process of acculturation. In addition the value, potential and limitations of the recorded archaeological resource as a research tool are considered, as are possible future lines of research
