Britannia Romana: Roman inscriptions and Roman Britain

'Britannia Romana' is based on the author's 40 years' experience of the epigraphy of Roman Britain.

It collects 487 inscriptions (mostly on stone, but also on metal, wood, tile and ceramic), the majority from Britain but many from other Roman provinces and Italy, so as to illustrate the history and character of Roman Britain (AD 43-410).

Each inscription is presented in the original (in Latin, except for eight in Greek), followed by a translation and informal commentary; they are linked by the narrative which they illustrate, and more than half are accompanied by photographs.
