Internal and external trade in the Roman province of Dalmatia
K. Glicksman
Abstract
This work considers some of the archaeological, epigraphic, and literary evidence for trade in the Roman province of Dalmatia during the first four centuries AD. It focuses mainly on external trade, especially imports for which there is much clear archaeological evidence. The section on imports is an analysis of trade relations between Dalmatia and the rest of the Mediterranean over time, while the sections on exports and internal trade, due to the nature of the evidence, are more general, making a case for the nature of these activities in the province during this period. The work not only assesses the currently available information but also suggests future areas of research which could add to our understanding of Dalmatian trade, both within the province and with the wider Mediterranean world.
