Summary

The Roman Empire's frontiers, spanning over 6,000 km along rivers, mountain ranges, and artificial barriers, were dynamic zones of contact, exchange, coercion, and exclusion. These frontiers, central to the International Congress of Roman Frontier Studies (LIMES), offer a diverse array of topics for scholarly exploration. This volume, part of the proceedings from the 25th LIMES Congress held in Nijmegen in 2022, delves into various aspects of supply and provisioning within the empire, focusing on organic material finds, riverine and maritime supply systems, militarily controlled mining, building material procurement, agro-political schemes, water management, and military material culture. The collection aims to provide both generalists and specialists with coherent thematic collections, making complex topics more accessible.
