This study explains the Greco-Roman urban form as it relates to the geological basis at selected sites in the Mediterranean basin. Each of the sites--Argos, Delphi, Ephesus, and Syracuse among them--has manifested in its physical form the geology on which it stood and from which it was made.
"By demonstrating the dependence of a group of cities on its geological base," the author writes, "the study forces us to examine more closely the ecology of human settlement, not as a set of theories but as a set of practical constraints..." Exacting attention will be given to local geology (types
of building stones, natural springs, effect of earthquakes, silting, etc.) The findings are based on site publications, visits to the sites, and the most recent archaeological plans. The book is illustrated with original photographs and geological maps indicating the known Greco-Roman features--the
first such maps published for any of the sites. Sequel to Water Management in Ancient Greek Cities, now available by Publication on Demand

建築史學傢Crouch近幾年來對環境學、地質學産生瞭濃厚的興趣,開始關注其早期希臘、羅馬城市的選址話題。她的齣發點,跟裏科沃特的齣發點大緻是兩個方嚮。後者,講述的是古人選址時的儀式和宗教活動;Crouch在將地質如何影響古代城市——有點年鑒學派的味道。
