Explore the connection between physical environments and human history with Space and Society in the Greek and Roman Worlds. Published by Cambridge University Press, this book provides a deep look at how history is shaped by the spaces people inhabit, from private homes to large public areas. Author Michael Scott uses a wide range of evidence, including literary texts, epigraphic records, and archaeological findings, to explain how spatial analysis helps us understand ancient societies. This work examines how Greek and Roman people thought about their surroundings and how they interacted with the spaces they built and occupied. By looking at the ways ancient actors moved through their worlds, this book offers a new way to view the social structures of antiquity. It is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the relationship between geography, architecture, and social identity in the ancient Mediterranean.
