Marston new article on Roman Gordion available open access
In the open-access article “Rural Agricultural Economies and Military Provisioning at Roman Gordion (Central Turkey)”, recently published in Environmental Archaeology, Marston teams up with Canan Çakırlar (University of Groningen) to present for the first time faunal data from the Roman period at Gordion, when the site was a military encampment. Integrating botanical and faunal data, we are able to identify key elements of the agricultural economy under direct military control (e.g., pig, cattle, wheat production) while others exhibit considerable autonomy.
