The Roman Near East, 31 BC-AD 337

Fergus Millar

From Augustus to Constantine, the Roman Empire in the Near East expanded step by step to the Red Sea and eastward across the Euphrates to the Tigris. This work of interpretive history examines this world as it was forged into the Roman provinces of Judea, Arabia, Mesopotamia and Syria, conveying the sweep of history as well as the diversity of peoples, religions and languages that intermingle in the Roman Near East.
