Beschreibung
In recent years, the study of ancient construction has focused increasingly on
putting the different aspects of the process of building into an economic framework.
This entailed examining the various steps of construction and the organization of a
building site in detail. It also meant that attempts were made to quantify the use
of both the materials and the labour necessary for the building project, as these
illustrate the scale of a building project and its impact on the overall economy.
The goal of this volume is to bring together different approaches of the study of
the economy of building. With the help of methods of quantification and intensive
architectural studies, the case studies of city walls, baths, temples and timber
buildings in this volume not only shed light on the various constructional
characteristics of these buildings, but also on a wide range of economic
implications. The collection of papers ranges from Messene in the 4th century BC to
Imperial Rome and are completed by practical insights from 19th century building
manuals.
