Book Reviews of Rome: An Oxford Archaeological Guide (Oxford Archaeological Guides)

Book Review: A. Claridge finishes where T. Ashby left off !
Summary: 5 Stars

Ms. Claridge is the lastest and the newest in the field of archaeology in Rome. Not since the work of the late Prof. Thomas Ashby on ancient Rome has English language readers been able to follow the course of archaeological work particularly in the historic center of ancient Rome. The book is particularly useful for anyone interested in the recent excavations in Rome during the 1980's and early 1990's. The Topographical illustrations of the excavations in the Roman Forum is especially interesting because much of the professional publications on these area's of research is yet to be published, in Particular Prof. A. Carandini's excavation at the north/east foot of the Palatine hill(1985-1990), also in the Forum of Nerva in the Imperial forum area. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the city of ancient Rome, and archaeology in Rome during the past two-decades.
