A Guide to Augusta Raurica

The ‘Guide to Augusta Raurica’ is the standard work on Augusta Raurica and is now available in English for the first time. In form and content, the book corresponds to the seventh, German-language edition, which appeared in 2012. This guide is aimed at both professional archaeologists and members of the public interested in scientific study. It provides a detailed description of both the Roman remains that were discovered during excavations and the monuments that are still visible on site. As in the earlier editions, great importance has been attached to presenting the history of discovery and excavation, since this not only shows how researchers reach their conclusions, but demonstrates that many questions are, indeed, open to different interpretations.
