<p>‘<em>The first research on Roman and Late Antique Crete, long neglected in favor of the Minoan period, was undertaken in the 1970s by Ian Sanders. Since then, Roman Crete has become an integral part of the new historiographical trends in Classical Studies, thanks to the work of several researchers, many of whom have contributed to the volume under review. George Harrison’s 1993 monograph, </em>The Romans in Crete<em>, is also a major contribution, though sometimes overlooked. The present volume, dedicated to him, does justice to the work of a scholar who has also devoted a great deal of time to Greek and Latin literature</em>.’ – <strong>François Chevrollier (2023): <em>Bryn Mawr Classical Review</em></strong></p>
