Martin Millet is a graduate of the University of London Institute of Archaeology with doctorate from the University of Oxford. Has worked at the Universities of Durham and Southampton before moving to Cambridge in 2001. He is active in fieldwork in northern England and central Italy, and has previously run projects in Spain and Portugal. His principal interests lie in the social and economic archaeology of the Roman world.Alison Moore is a graduate of the Universities of Kent and Southampton with doctorate from University of Southampton. She has lectured at Southampton & Canterbury Christchurch University and her principal interests social archaeology of the Roman Empire, age and the lifecourse.Dr Louise Revell is a Lecturer in History at the University of Southampton. Her primary interest is in the impact of Rome on the provincial communities of the western empire. She currently hold a Getty Fellowship as part of the Arts of Rome's Provinces workshop.

The editors of The Oxford Handbook of Roman Britain (Martin Millett, Louise Revell, and Alison Moore) and their contributors do much to relieve the place of both burdens. They eschew the tradition of shoehorning the archaeological evidence of Iron Age and Roman Britain into a Rome-centred narrative of conquest, settlement, and civilisation ... Roman Britain is thus liberated from the more triumphalist version of the British origin myth, the winners' take on empire. At the same time, archaeological evidence is freed up to tell more subtle and complicated stories about the changes brought by empire to the region, especially those experienced by ordinary people
