They stretch for some 7,500km through 20 countries which encircle the Mediterranean Sea. The remains of these frontiers have been studied by visitors and later by archaeologists for several centuries. Many of the inscriptions and sculpture, weapons, pottery and artefacts created and used by the soldiers and civilians who lived on the frontier can be seen in museums. Equally evocative of the lost might of Rome are the physical remains of the frontiers themselves. The aim of this series of books is not only to inform the interested visitor about the history of the frontiers but to act as a guidebook as well.The Roman military remains in North Africa are remarkable in their variety and in their state of preservation: they deserve to be better known. They include towers and forts, stretches of defensive lines of stone and earth with ditches broken by gates, and roads, sitting in the most amazing scenery. It is hoped that each reader of this book will enjoy learning more about North Africa's remarkable Roman inheritance. 410 0$aFrontiers of the Roman Empire Series 517 $aFrontiers of the Roman Empire 606 $aMilitary architecture$7Generated by AI 607 $aAfrica, North$7Generated by AI 615 0$aMilitary architecture 700 $aBreeze$b David J$0231740 701 $aJilek$b Sonja$01790765 701 $aMattingly$b David$0242105 701 $aRushworth$b Alan$01250760 701 $aSterry$b Martin$01345158 701 $aLeitch$b Victoria$01311463 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910854401103321 996 $aFrontiers of the Roman Empire$94335426 997 $aUNINA
