  • Roman Imperialism and the Transformation of Rural Society in a Frontier Province

    Open AccessNico Roymans, N G A M Roymans et al.ARTICLEBritannia2020

    This paper studies rural populations in the Roman frontier province of Germania inferior, employing a perspective that allocates more space to the exploitative and repressive aspects of Roman rule. We draw attention to an alternative series of topics than the ones currently presented in rural archaeology. This includes attention to situations of crisis and instability, to fundamental reordering of rural populations, to issues of migration and to …

  • The dark side of the Empire

    Open AccessManuel Fernández-Götz, Dominik Maschek et al.ARTICLEAntiquity2020Citada por: 32Referências: 29

    This debate piece offers a critique of some recent 'new materialist' approaches and their application to Roman expansionism, particularly those positing that the study of 'Romanisation' should be about 'understanding objects in motion'-a perspective that carries important political and ethical implications. Here, the authors introduce the alternative notion of a 'predatory' political economy for conceptualising Late Republican and Early Imperial …

  • Conquest, mass violence and ethnic stereotyping

    Open AccessNico Roymans, N G A M RoymansARTICLEJournal of Roman Archaeology2019Citada por: 8

    The Late Republican to Early Imperial period was one of spectacular territorial expansion into the surrounding ‘tribal periphery’ of the Roman West. There, the indigenous societies were confronted with state-organised warfare on an unprecedented scale and with a range of new military technologies and strategies. The direct societal impact of conquest on the subjected groups varied greatly. Conquest could strengthen certain polities and stimulate …

  • A Roman massacre in the far north

    Nico Roymans, N G A M RoymansCHAPTERConflict Archaeology2017

    This chapter deals with the specific case of the massacre of the Germanic Tencteri and Usipetes in 55 BC, when almost the entire population would have perished. The above quote from Caesar's De Bello Gallico describes one of the biggest massacres perpetrated by the Roman army during the conquest of Gaul. It is often emphasised that all Roman generals probably inflated the number of enemy casualties in order to enhance their personal prestige as m…

  • Conflict and violence in the Neolithic of Central-Northern Europe

    Linda Fibiger, Manuel Fernández-Götz et al.BOOKConflict Archaeology2017

    This chapter focuses on the geographical area of what comprises Germany, Denmark and Sweden. It considers the role of mass fatality sites in discussions on Neolithic violence and presents a case study to try to get closer to the question of the human experience of violent interaction in this transformative period of human history. Mass graves, or more generally mass fatality sites, present a particular challenge in discussions of Neolithic violen…

    Le temps et l’espace déterminent ensemble les caractéristiques des groupes qui les partagent. Leur histoire, facteur mais aussi expression identitaire, peut être réinventée comme l’ont fait les Athéniens à propos de Marathon, réinterprétée comme le faisait les Scythes dans leurs légendes, vécue au présent par les Bataves du Haut-Empire par et pour l’ethnos, autant qu’elle est le résultat de sa synergie

  • The Politics of Identity

    Open AccessManuel Fernández-Götz, Nico Roymans et al.ARTICLEJournal of the North Atlantic2015Citada por: 10Referências: 6

    The Late Iron Age in the Rhineland area was a period of intensive social change, manifested in the development of a hierarchical system of sanctuaries. This paper discusses the social implications of this development, thereby emphasizing the role of regional and supraregional cult places as key-sites in the construction of politicized ethnic identities and associated power networks. Moreover, some interesting spatial and temporal patterns can be …

  • Late Iron Age Gold Hoards from the Low Countries and the Caesarian Conquest of Northern Gaul

    N G A M Roymans, Nico Roymans et al.BOOKLate Iron Age Gold Hoards from…2012

    In exploring the birth of a Dutch identity between 1780 and 1830, this book integrates nationalism studies with literary and linguistic history by highlighting scholarly study of the Dutch language as a factor in the creation of the national identity. These early scholars promoted the Dutch language during a time of political upheaval, when citizens needed something to feel proud of. This book examines the impact individual agents had on a crucia…
