Description

Archaeologists continue to detail the results of their excavation of the Roman villa near the western watershed of the Lucanian Apennines. Here they describe animal bones, terrestrial molluscs, bird bones, marine and freshwater shells, plant remains, and the remains of a fetus found in one of the middens. The first two volumes deal with the site and setting, and with small finds such as lamps and coins; the fourth and final will consider pottery and glass. Many charts and graphs, and a few drawings and monochrome photographs support the text. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
