This volume, a collection of essays in honour of Harvey Sheldon, begins
with a section on the chronology and cartography of Roman London. The
second section examines the landscape and environment of Roman London
and its hinterland, drawing from a variety of disciplines.The third part
of the book examines themes which are more difficult to identify through
the archaeological record, such as education, cults and attitudes to
death and burial. In the fourth section of the volume, the rich material
culture of Roman London is examined through a series of papers on
artefacts, including brooches, inkwells and toilet implements.
