Transformation of Cities under the Rule of the Ostrogoths

Original language description

Transitional period between the Antiquity and the Middle Ages is in many ways a crucial epoch in European history. The fall of the Western Roman Empire led to disappearance or transformation of the classical ancient institutions of which one of them - the cities - are discussed in this chapter. With using of the latest findings from archaeological and literary sources (Cassiodorus' Variae) will be here briefly characterized in several aspects the development of classical ancient cities - a crisis in urban administration, the role of Christianity, the changes of the inner urban built-up area and the way how the Ostrogoths (settled in the 5th century in northern Italy) coped with the Roman concept of civitas.
