Salt and Power. Early States, Rome and Resource Control
- Title
- Salt and Power. Early States, Rome and Resource Control
- Alternative Title
- Salt and Power project
- Description
- eng The project aim is to establish how salt was produced before their installation and how salt production kept pace with the rising population of the early states, in particular Rome. We will investigate these questions with an up-to-date methodology to contribute with a historically important case study to the global archaeological and anthropological debate on salt-making and resource control in the context of prehistoric and early state societies.
