| Title: | Gardens of the Roman Empire: Catalog of Provinces outside Italy |
| Authors: | Jashemski, Wilhelmina |
| Type: | Book chapter |
| Keywords: | Roman Gardens Roman Gaul Roman Iberia Roman Germania Roman Britannia Roman Africa Garden archaeology Roman Spain Roman villa Roman domus |
| Issue Date: | 2008 |
| Abstract: | "Gardens of the Roman Empire" under the general editorship of Wilhelmina Jashemski will eventually be published by Cambridge University Press after considerable editing subsequent to the death of Professor Jashemski. These files give the state of the manuscript of the catalog of the gardens outside Italy as they were seen and approved by her except for minor missing references. Included also is the draft of the text of the synthesis chapters which she had written or approved. |
| Description: | The catalog entries are arranged by major province. Within a province, they are arranged geographically to facilitate relating one with others nearby. Each entry contains, in so far as possible, an introduction to the locality, precise location on modern maps and GPS coordinates, a description of the archaeological site, the story of its development, a plan, indications of the locations of gardens and their relation to surrounding spaces. Any available information on soil quality, water and drainage, plant remains, and planting holes and techniques is reported. The current condition of the site is described if possible. |
