The second project newsletter for Realising the Research Potential of Developer-funded Roman Archaeology in England is now available. The project has been running for over one year now,
and this newsletter provides you with an update on progress and information on upcoming
events.

Cotswold Archaeology is collaborating on this major three-year long project with the Department of Archaeology at the University of Reading examining regional and chronological variation in Roman rural settlement through analysis of farm layouts, domestic architecture and agricultural practice. The project will provide a means of measuring the integration of settlements in different parts of England with the Roman provincial economy.
