The author also explores the persistence of pre-Roman cultures, and how these factors affected the evolution of the cities, intellectual life and even entertainment under the Republic and Empire.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;b&gt;Gareth Sears&lt;/b&gt; is a lecturer in Roman History at the University of Birmingham. He is a specialist on Roman North Africa, and has co-directed archaeological work at the city of Cyrene in Libya for the Cyrenaica Archaeological Project.&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;  </text>

                <text>&lt;b&gt;Extract from the preface : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
This book is a synthesis of many people's studies of the origin and early history of London, of which I have endeavoured to make a coherent story. Our knowledge of this subject has been vastly increased in recent years by archaeologists who have rescued and interpreted the buried material evidence.&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Contents : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
Preface&lt;/div&gt;
1. London before the Roman conquest&lt;/div&gt;
2. The Claudian invasion and the beginning of Londinium&lt;/div&gt;
3. The first Londinium, its death and rebirth&lt;/div&gt;
4. The transformation of Londinium, AD 70 - 125&lt;/div&gt;
5. Londinium in its heyday&lt;/div&gt;
6. The hinterland of Londinium&lt;/div&gt;
7. Londinium in the Antonine and Severan periods&lt;/div&gt;
8. Londinium in the third century&lt;/div&gt;
9. Londinium in the fourth century&lt;/div&gt;
10. From Londinium to London&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
The late &lt;b&gt;Ralph Merrifield&lt;/b&gt; was an archaeologist and museum curator who wrote several definitive works on the history of Roman London.&lt;/div&gt;
