Zusammenfassung:The Dodecanese and the Eastern Aegean Islands in Late Antiquity, AD 300-700' is a regional study of the history, archaeology, and religious profile of the Late Antique Dodecanese (the islands of the south-eastern Aegean, centred on Rhodes), exploring how the spread of Christianity altered these communities and how the prosperity of the eastern Roman Empire, and the new capital in Constantinople, affected their life.
