Subject Description | This subject studies two cities in the imperial period from Augustus (27BC-AD14) to Hadrian (AD117-138). The American excavations of the Agora will be a focus of the subject as they have provided information as to the functioning of the city over several centuries. The second city to be studied is Rome, the largest in the ancient world and with an unbroken history up to the present day. Students should complete the subject with the ability to use and evaluate archaeological, inscriptional and literary evidence as a means of understanding the workings of ancient cities. |
