Reviews
In sum, this is a scholarly publication of significant merit and will be of wide interest for many years to come, not just to Roman scholars but also those interested in the archaeology of ritual and religion, feasting and the curation of ancient artefacts in the past. The high standard and success of this publication is a testament to the expertise of the two authors: one a highly regarded local archaeologist, and the other, one of the most well-respected museum curators of his generation. * Archaeological Journal *
