A Roman cadastre is a particular form of land allotment which looks like a chequerboard. It was implemented by the Romans in regions throughout the Empire, from Syria to Gaul. Yet, how did a Roman cadastre exactly look like? What has Roman cadastration in common with centuriatio and parcellation, and what not? Are aerial photographs and maps a reliable source to reveal traces of a Roman cadastre? Did Roman cadastres exist outside the Mediterranean region, and if so, what are the consequences of its existence on a socio-cultural level? Behind these apparently straightforward questions are for m

In short, all that was Jewish in Galilee was basically understood as being rabbinic Jewish, i.e. following social recommendations that are described in later rabbinic literature. As the historicity of this later literature for understanding second-century Galilee has been fiercely questioned over the last decades, scholars now slowly turn to archaeology as a source for understanding the Galilean population during this period. This dissertations aim, then, is to document and interpret this evidence in order to understand the socio-cultural changes in the region during this particular period. Put differently, it sets out to examine what Jewish meant in Galilee at the time of the second century AD. The analysis begins with a discussion of two interconnected infrastructural aspects: the road network, which was a military initiative to facilitate troop movements, and the Roman military presence in Galilee. It is argued on the basis of this discussion that the Roman administration had relatively little interest in Galilee proper. The earliest, and more import ...
