Excellent- More about Experiencing the Frontier and the Frontier of Experience: Barbarian perspectives and Roman strategies to deal with new threats
The Roman Empire responded to the threats of the 3rd century AD by adopting different strategies, including inclusion, warfare, and influence. This volume explores the archaeological evidence for Roman practice in the central regions and the south-eastern parts of the European 'Barbaricum' and how 'Divide et impera' functioned as a practical policy based on alliances, warfare, and diplomatic initiatives. The comparison of Roman imports in different parts of Iron-Age Europe can help understand the complex process of shifting power and influence in an emerging new Europe.

The Roman Empire faced significant challenges in the 3rd century AD due to the emergence of new geopolitical circumstances. The 'barbarians, who were often already integrated into Roman military structures as mercenaries and auxiliaries, posed a significant threat to the Empire. Rome responded to these threats with a range of strategies, oscillating between inclusion, warfare, and other means of exerting influence.
This volume examines the archaeological evidence for Roman practices, particularly the diverse strategies of power and influence in the central regions and the southeastern parts of the European 'Barbaricum. It explores how the concept of 'Divide et impera' functioned as a practical policy based on alliances, warfare, and diplomatic initiatives, which can be traced through prestige-goods and subsidia treasures found in the Barbaricum.
Comparing Roman imports in different parts of Iron-Age Europe provides valuable insights into a complex process of shifting power and influence in an emerging new Europe. This transformation led to the medieval 'Herrschaft and social structure, shaping the course of the Empire for centuries to come.
