Abstract

While the remains of the well‐preserved and excavated towns of Pompeii, Ostia and Herculaneum provide us with a fascinating impression of their once bustling economic life, the study of urban economic space requires a more extensive geographical and methodological framework. This paper investigates whether the systematic use of non‐invasive techniques at other, often neglected, urban sites can deliver a meaningful contribution to the study of Roman urbanism, especially by revealing previously unknown foci of commercial activity in the Roman city. To illustrate the effectiveness of certain non‐destructive strategies, including geophysical prospection and aerial survey, we focus on a specific type of market building that was quite common in the Roman world, the macellum. The case studies presented here demonstrate how non‐invasive archaeological investigation, often in combination with other topographic operations, can facilitate the identification of macella and enhance studies of economic architecture and space in Roman towns in Italy and the provinces.
我要去马塞拉吗?非侵入性考古调查对识别和研究罗马食品市场的贡献
庞贝、奥斯蒂亚和赫库兰尼姆等保存和发掘完好的城镇遗迹给我们留下了他们曾经繁华的经济生活的迷人印象,但对城市经济空间的研究需要一个更广泛的地理和方法框架。本文调查了在其他经常被忽视的城市遗址系统地使用非侵入性技术是否能为罗马城市主义的研究做出有意义的贡献,特别是通过揭示罗马城市中以前未知的商业活动焦点。为了说明某些非破坏性策略的有效性,包括地球物理勘探和航空勘测,我们重点关注了一种在罗马世界很常见的特定类型的市场建筑,即macellum。这里介绍的案例研究表明,非侵入性考古调查,通常与其他地形操作相结合,可以促进马塞拉的识别,并加强对意大利和各省罗马城镇经济建筑和空间的研究。
