Description
Summary:As part of a comprehensive archaeological survey of the area around the site of Glac in the north-west of Serbia, a detailed examination has been undertaken of the pattern of rural settlement associated with Roman era drainage and canal works east of Roman Sirmium. The research question posed is whether there is any archaeological evidence for land subdivision including cadastration and centuriation during the late Roman period associated with the drainage and land reclamation works attributed to the emperor Probus. The context of any land subdivision and allocation and their implications for agricultural development during the late Roman period are explored.
