Repair and recycling on the Roman frontier. Insights from the Bonn hoard of mail armour
Original language description
The Bonn hoard, a remarkable fnd in Germany, ofers valuable insights into the resource management practices of the Roman military along its northern frontier. This study explores the intersection of recycling, repair, and urban connections in the Roman military economy. The hoard, consisting of over 14 kg of mail armour, reveals how the Roman army’s self-reliance in equipment production led to efcient recycling strategies. The paper investigates the motivations behind the deposition, shedding light on a likely stockpile of mail repair materials in a Roman vicus. This discovery underscores the complexity of resource management within the Roman military and its urban surroundings.
