Environmental impacts of battles in Antiquity
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
The published article analyses the plundering site in the ancient world warfare. During the expeditions, the grain fields were the main object of interest of the troops in the first place. The plunderers not only used them as their own supply, but we can also see efforts to devastate the hinterland of the enemy side behind their subsequent habitual destruction, which also constituted the usual framework of coercion in an attempt to make them submit or to challenge their army to a direct confrontation. Last but not least, interventions in the water regime of rivers or canals could have had a similar effect, in order to prevent enemy movement by flooding their surroundings.
