The individual case studies focus on fertility, mortality and migration and the roles they played in various aspects of ancient life. These studies - drawn from a range of populations in Athens and Attica, Rome and Italy, and Graeco-Roman Egypt - illustrate how new insights can be gained by applying demographic methods to familiar themes in ancient history. Methodological issues are addressed in a clear, straightforward manner with no assumption of prior technical knowledge, ensuring that the book is accessible to readers with no training in demography. The book marks an important step forward in ancient historical demography, affirming both the centrality of population studies in ancient history and the contribution that antiquity can make to population history in general"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000840270 650_0 $$aDemography$$zGreece$$xHistory. 000840270 650_0 $$aDemography$$zRome$$xHistory. 000840270 651_0 $$aGreece$$xPopulation$$xHistory. 000840270 651_0 $$aRome$$xPopulation$$xHistory. 000840270 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000840270 7001_ $$aHolleran, Claire,$$d1979- 000840270 7001_ $$aPudsey, April. 000840270 852__ $$bebk 000840270 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=807342$$zOnline Access 000840270 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:840270$$pGLOBAL_SET 000840270 980__ $$aBIB 000840270 980__ $$aEBOOK 000840270 982__ $$aEbook 000840270 983__ $$aOnline
