Die Kriegsflotten Der Griechischen Städte Im Römischen Herrschaftsbereich 2.–1. Jahrhundert V. Chr.

In spite of growing general interest in the Hellenistic polis generally and its military organisation in particular, the navies of these cities have not been systematically studied. This work studies the subject on the basis of the epigraphic evidence, which is presented in a separate volume of sources. The texts reveal that many poleis continued to operate warships while they were being incorporated into the Roman Empire,despite the extensive resources this required.
