Data
Rome's eastern desert fronteir, stretching from the Red Sea to Norther Iraq, was one of the most important in her empire. Using the pioneering aerial photographs o the 1920s and 1930s alongside evidence from field work, epigraphy and ancient literature, David Kennedy and Derrick Riley examine over 100 of the best-preserved military sites of this inadequately understood region.
