Roman Republican Archaeology

Given the closure of universities, research centers and libraries for Covid 19, I decided to upload the complete pdf of the articles even if the publishing house had asked not to do it (or at least, to wait a few years). But we are in an emergency and I hope they will understand. -

The Conference will address a range of important topics and themes relating to the archaeology of the Roman world. We are inviting proposals for Papers that will present new discoveries or ideas in the field of Roman archaeology through 40 themed conference sessions.
Session 25: For the last ten years, research on Roman Republican conflict archaeology in the western Mediterranean periphery (the Hispaniae and southern Gaul) has seen a relevant impulse: specific projects in France, Spain and Portugal, innovative PhD dissertations, workshops and conferences and field work. As a consequence, the documentary base of this field of study (i.e. the Roman Republican military archaeology) has expanded exponentially, leading to the reinterpretation of the dynamics and the historical significance of the early Roman settlement in those territories.
However, the archaeological identification and characterisation of the Roman Republican (late 3rd c./mid 1st c. BCE) military or conflict spaces (e.g. battlefields, sieges, camps, forts, officinae armorum) has been the main bone of contention. The use of different archaeological criteria in categorising such spaces has often been controversial. The need for a more integrated approach combining material culture studies, bioarchaeology, spatial and landscape archaeology and historical sources or even IT modelling should be considered. The debate is still open.
Within this session, our aim is to enhance debate among researchers in order to develop methodological approaches to identify and characterise such spaces, and bring out new cases to discuss and advance research in this Western periphery.
