Inhaltsangabe

Eating and Drinking Along Ancient Roads and Rivers presents a diverse collection of research articles exploring food production, consumption, and cultural significance from the Roman to early Medieval period. Through archaeological, archaeometric, and historical approaches, the contributions examine how diet shaped identity, trade, and social structures across different regions. 


Topics covered include:

• Material culture of food consumption, such as pottery, amphorae, and bronze vessels

• Gastronomic practices, including Roman dining traditions and food preparation

• Scientific analyses, such as stable isotope studies and dietary reconstructions

• Food-related customs and beliefs, including funerary practices and religious influences

• Social and economic aspects, such as trade networks, mobility, and food distribution


The articles provide insights into ancient dietary habits, offering a broad perspective on how food influenced daily life, health, and cultural interactions along roads and rivers.
