Simulating Roman Economies Brughmans
The use of formal modelling and computational simulation in studies of the Roman economy has become more common over the last decade. What kinds of insights about the Roman economy can it lead to that could not have been obtained through more established approaches, and how do simulation methods constructively enhance research processes in Roman Studies?This edited volume addresses this need through critical discussion and convincing examples. But detailed critical evaluations of this innovative approach are still missing and much needed.
A key contribution of simulation lies in its ability to formally represent diverse theories of Roman economic phenomena, and test them against It presents the Roman economy as a highly complex system, traditionally studied through critical examinations of material and textual sources, and understood through a wealth of diverging theories.
