Omschrijving
This book builds on more than a decade of fieldwork, providing an unprecedented overview of urban and rural development in the late medieval period.
"The main argument of this detailed archaeological study is that the Christianization of Baetica "happened faster and deeper than generally admitted" within the immediate 75 years after Constantine’s Edict of Toleration, 313 CE (25) (...) Sánchez Velasco makes a cogent case for a rapid and sometimes violent Christian displacement of traditional Roman civic religion in the archaeological record." - Norman Underwood, New York University, *Bulletin for Spanish and Portuguese Historical Studies*, Vol. 43, 2018
Jerónimo Sánchez Velasco is an Honorary Senior Fellow in the Department of Prehistory and Archaeology at the University of Seville.
