Description
Explore the history of one of the most significant public monuments in the ancient world. The fortifications of Pompeii represent the city's largest and best preserved structure, offering a window into seven centuries of urban evolution. This book examines how the city invested massive amounts of money, labor, and resources into the constant rebuilding and maintenance of its defensive walls. Readers will learn how every change to these fortifications signaled shifts in the social and political landscape of the region. While the walls served a clear military purpose, their construction materials and design provide deep insight into the architectural and urban development of the time. This work provides a detailed look at how these defenses reflected the changing framework of Pompeii and its surrounding territory throughout its long history.
