Background: New approaches to daily life in Late Antique Ostia --The new urban image of Rome's ancient harbor -- Part II. Foreground: The third century : Roman religions and the long reach of the emperor -- The fourth century : proud temples and resilient traditions -- The fifth century : history seen from the spaces in between --The sixth and seventh centuries : a city in motion, shifting traditions.Ostia Antica was Rome's ancient harbor. Its houses and apartments, taverns and baths, warehouses, shops and temples have long contributed to a picture of daily life in ancient Rome. Recent investigations have revealed, however, that life in Ostia did not end with a bang but with a whimper. Only on the cusp of the Middle Ages did the town's residents entrench themselves in a smaller settlement outside the walls. What can this new evidence tell us about life in the later Roman Empire, as society navigated an increasingly Christian world? Ostia in Late Antiquity, the first academic study on Ostia to appear in English in almost 20 years and the first to treat the Late Antique period, tackles the dynamics of this transformative time. Drawing on new archaeological research, including the author's own, and incorporating both material and textual sources, it presents a social history of the town from the third through the ninth century.Social changeItalyOstia (Extinct city)ChristianitySocial aspectsItalyOstia (Extinct city)HarborsRomeHistoryPort citiesRomeHistoryArchitectureItalyOstia (Extinct city)Ostia (Extinct city)Social life and customsOstia (Extinct city)Social conditionsSocial changeChristianitySocial aspectsHarborsHistory.Port citiesHistory.Architecture937/.63HIS002000bisacshBoin Douglas786369UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910779981303321Ostia in late antiquity1751105UNINA
