Drawing on extensive historical and archaeological data, Nico Roymans examines how between 50 BCE and 70 CE, the Romans cultivated the Batavians as an ethnic other by intensively recruiting them to the Roman army while simultaneously carrying out extermination campaigns against other tribes in the region. Roymans also considers how the status of the Batavian settlement reveals intriguing insights into Roman definitions of 'civilization' and 'barbarism.' Ethnic Identity and Imperial Power is a fascinating anthropological study on how ancient frontier peoples negotiated their self-image. 410 0$aAmsterdam archaeological studies ;$v10 606 $aBatavi (Germanic people)$xEthnic identity 606 $aRomans$zNetherlands 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zNetherlands 607 $aNetherlands$xHistory$yTo 1384 607 $aNetherlands$xAntiquities 607 $aRome$xHistory$yEmpire, 30 B.C.-476 A.D 615 0$aBatavi (Germanic people)$xEthnic identity. 615 0$aRomans 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a936.302 700 $aRoymans$b Nico$0800853 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996209546503316 996 $aEthnic Identity and Imperial Power$91802170 997 $aUNISA
