Economies Beyond Agriculture in the Classical WorldDavid J. Mattingly, John Salmon Routledge, 11.03.2002 - 336 Seiten This book presents a challenge to the long held view that the predominantly agricultural economies of ancient Greece and Rome were underdeveloped. It shows that the exploitation of natural resources, manufacturing and the building trade all made significant contributions to classical economies. It will be an indispensable resource for those interested in the period. |
