About this book
Greek and Roman cities were often laid out by plan, and F. Haverfield gathers the evidence for it here. The book grew from his 1910 Creighton Lecture at the University of London, first offered as a scholar's contribution to the modern town-planning movement, and compares the Hellenistic and Roman ages with the present for their care for the well-being of the individual.
The preface mentions the German excavations at Priene and Miletus and the small Roman towns of Silchester and Caerwent in Britain. A photograph of streets in Timgad opens the volume.
