Roman fortifcation terms in German
#5
Quote:There is virtually no material in English on them,
Sadly, British publishers don't see this as an opportunity. They will only consider books with "Secret" or "Mystery" in the title. :roll:

Quote:Could either of you recommend which books by the above authors might cover significant areas of the Limes, but at the same time, give more details as to the archeological methodology and the findings?
Ideally, you should have Dietwulf Baatz's classic Der Römische Limes. Archäologische Ausflüge zwischen Rhein und Donau, but it seems to change hands for silly money these days.

Otherwise, I'd recommend the whole series of "Die Römer in ..." books: e.g., Die Römer in Baden-Württemberg: Römerstätten und Museen von Aalen bis Zwiefalten (bang up-to-date), Die Römer in Bayern (I believe there's now a new edition?), Die Römer in Hessen (an absolute classic), ... Some are out-of-print: maybe they can still be obtained in local bookshops in the various regions?
