| Summary | This is a close and coherent examination of the evolution and transformation of towns between AD 300 and 900 within towns the borders of the old Roman Empire. The so-called 'Dark Ages' have often been represented, wrongly, as a period of general decay. In fact, as the archaeological studies in this book show, many of the towns of the Empire survived and developed, even though the Roman character of the centres was lost or altered. Among the important questions addressed are: to what extent were urban structures such as roads, walls and drains maintained? What was the role of the Church in preserving and developing the urban fabric? Do patterns of survival reflect the depth of adoption of Roman culture |
