Town-Country Relations in the Northern Parts of "Germania inferior" from an Economic Perspective: Panel 8.9
Book information
Description
The province 'Germania inferior' is an interesting candidate for investigating town-country relations. While its southern part borders on the distribution area of oppida, its northern parts had no Iron Age tradition of large settlement agglomerations. Nonetheless, in the Roman period towns were founded here: the 'Colonia Ulpia Traiana' (Xanten), 'Ulpia Noviomagus' (Nijmegen) and 'Forum Hadriani/Municipium Aelium Cananefatium' (Voorburg). An important economic agent of the time was the Roman army with its numerous forts along the Lower German Limes. These massive and new agglomerations of persons that were not primarily involved in food production must have posed a challenge to the supply of provisions – in food as well as other commodities. This panel summarises and compares the town-country relationshipsin two 'civitates': the 'civitas Cugernorum' with its capital 'Colonia Ulpia Traiana' and the civitas Batavorum with its capital 'Municipium Ulpia Noviomagus'. What supply strategies for the towns can be discerned? In what way did the primary centres influence the countryside? Are there differences between the 'civitates'? Do they differ from those in the southern parts of 'Germania inferior'? And if so, what are the reasons for it? Another focus are methodological questions, such as: with the data that we have, can we answer these questions? And if that is not the case, what other methods may be applied to gain a deeper insight into this aspect of Roman economy?

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
