  • More about Migration, Mobility and Place in Ancient Italy

Migration, Mobility, and Place in Ancient Italy challenges the concept of a natural tie to the land and a demographically settled world, arguing that human mobility in the last millennium BC was ongoing and cyclical. It discusses the stories of individuals and migrant groups, traders, refugees, expulsions, the founding and demolition of sites, and the political processes that could encourage or discourage the transfer of people.

Migration, mobility, and place in ancient Italy challenge prevailing conceptions of a natural tie to the land and a demographically settled world. It argues that much human mobility in the last millennium BC was ongoing and cyclical, particularly outside the military context. The foreigner in our midst was not regarded as a problem, and boundaries of status rather than geopolitics were difficult to cross. The book discusses the stories of individuals and migrant groups, traders, refugees, expulsions, the founding and demolition of sites, and the political processes that could both encourage and discourage the transfer of people from one place to another. By providing a long view from history, it exposes how fleeting are the conventions that take shape here and now.
