Roman Britain: A Sourcebook (Routledge Sourcebooks for the Ancient World)

First published in 1986, this book is an authoritative collection of the major sources for Roman Britain. It incorporates not only extracts from the main literary sources - Caesar, Tacitus, Dio Cassius, Ammianus, Bede, Gildas and Zosimus - but a substantial collection of inscriptions and coins. In this new edition translations of the most important of the Vindolanda tablets - published since the first edition appeared - have been added; and the epigraphic references have been updated and new material added, including inscribed rings, tiles and other items from all around the country.
