TRADE: Transformations of Adriatic Europe presents the proceedings of a 2016 conference held in Zadar (Croatia) which analysed the transformative phenomena of Late Antiquity in an area where research has been comparatively scarce and results less widely known. The contributions span the period between the 2nd and 9th centuries, that is from roughly the establishment of the Severan dynasty to the end of the Carolingian period. The volume collects 45 papers dealing with the Adriatic area that aim to create a new dataset for the historical reconstruction of processes related to forms of settlement, aspects of production, and trade and the movement of pottery and other craft products between its two coasts, here examined either through regional synthesis or the presentation of individual study contexts.
