ABSTRACT
The context for the writing of this book was the suggestion that the imperial legacy has influenced the nature of archaeological research in Britain (see Preface). An earlier chapter contained a brief discussion of the imperial legacy of Roman frontier studies after Haverfield. In that chapter I considered the comments of a number of authors regarding the influences that the Victorian and Edwardian world view had on the study of Roman frontiers. In this chapter I shall study the influence of Haverfield’s work on Romanisation in rather more detail, since it interrelates with the topic of English origins that I have already discussed.
