"The Italians on the Land: Changing perspectives on Republican Italy then and now"

As is well known the period from the end of the Third Century to the First Century BC presents certain problems in the interpretation of Roman and Italian Land Exploitation. This conference is being held to bring together scholars working in this area. We are hoping to provide a platform for younger and more established scholars to present their ideas together and will be publishing the Proceedings.

This is the third and final Call for Papers for this conference. We have space for one, maybe two, more speakers and would particularly welcome contributions from an archaeological or broadly demographic perspective. However, other contributions will certainly be considered. Contracts for publication of the Proceedings have been signed and it is envisaged that we will be going to print sometime early in 2009.

Please forward abstracts to:
