Trade, Transport and Society in the Ancient World (Routledge Revivals): A Sourcebook: Routledge Revivals

Autor Onno Van Nijf, Fik Meijer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 apr 2016
This book, first published in 1992, presents an introduction to the nature of trade and transport in antiquity through a selection of translated literary, papyrological, epigraphical and legal sources. These texts illustrate a range of aspects of ancient trade and transport: from the role of the authorities, to the status of traders, to the capacity and speed of ancient ships.

It focuses first on different aspects of transport over land and then on transport by river and concludes with a discussion of several aspects of ancient seafaring,
This book is ideal for students of ancient history.
