gilius Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Is anyone able to interpret this map? What is significance of the shaded areas? What are the dotted lines? Does it indicate any Municipia or Colonia?

Bryaxis Hecatee Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 On the noticia see, for exemple : http://www.jstor.org/pss/299625 : the noticia is a 4th century AD document and as such gives a view which comes after 4 centuries of evolution, cities rise and fall and provinces' reorganisation. As for the rest, the article you took the map from does provide more informations for each civitate and capital town, so maybe you should either read it if you understand french or download it in pdf and translate it in google translate to see if anything understandable gets out of the machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
