Die römerzeitliche Besiedlung im rechten südlichen Oberrheingebiet
Written as a doctoral thesis at the University of Freiburg, the volume investigates the Roman settlement in the southernmost section of the right side of the Upper Rhine region between Kaiserstuhl, Black Forest and the river Alb, a tributary of the High Rhine. The extensive study is based on a catalogue collection and evaluation of the more than 750 Roman sites that are known from the region. Following a critical assessment of sources, the analysis first deals with the settlement types and streets which subdued and developed the landscape. The focus is on questions of derivation, development and the economic basis of settlements. The study is completed by a reconstruction of the settlement processes on the right side of the Upper Rhine valley starting with the expansion of Rome into the region shortly after the begin of the common era until the end of the Roman Empire in the 5th century AD.
