The Roman Eastern Frontier - AHIS242

This unit provides an in-depth study of Rome's attempts to defend itself against a resurgent Iranian Empire in the late third and early fourth centuries AD. Students have the chance to study both military and diplomatic history of the two great empires as well as religious change within them. Archaeological evidence is used extensively to help reconstruct our knowledge of Roman defensive systems.
