Die Stadtgeschichte Des Romischen Salzburg: Befunde Bis Funde Bis 1987 (Bar International) (German Edition) German edition

Based on analyses of stratigraphy and finds, this book reconstructs the history of Iuvavum, the Roman town of Salzburg (Austria). Founded as the first municipium in the northern part of the province of Noricum, this town was crossed by an important west-eastern traffic route, as well as a correspondingly important transalpine road, and thus developed into a vibrant nexus of traffic and trade. Covering some 90 acres, the centre assumed the role of ?capital? of northwestern Noricum.
