Frontiers of the Roman Empire: The Saxon Shore and the Maritime Coast

Frontieres de l'Empire Romain : Le Litus Saxonicum et la Cote Maritime

Beschreibung

The North Sea and Channel coasts form the geographic frontier of the Roman Empire with the sea â the edge of the then known world. This border represents a page in military maritime history, but its coasts, in Great Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium and France, contain archaeological sites of high heritage value that deserve a large audience.
