Synopsis
This edition is based on the latest discoveries and chronicles the lives, habits and thoughts of women in Britain over four centuries. Diversity of backgrounds, traditions and tastes lies at the heart of the book - displaying the cosmopolitan nature of Romano-British society. The author also attempts to explore the unique archaeological record for British women in the period, as opposed to classical evidence about women from Rome. Evidence for high status women is more plentiful, including the powerful female rulers Cartimandua and Boudica, but the author attempts to balance this picture with more broad-ranging analyses of material culture, inscriptions, writing tablets, curse tablets, and burials, which include lower class women and give a sense of the reality of life in a province. The text is illustrated throughout and aimed at the non-specialist, as well as well students and lecturers on Roman Britain.
