virtual water network of the Roman world - Gunthamund Hasding - 12-17-2014
a very interesting paper about the redistribution of "virtual water" in the Roman empire
http://www.hydrol-earth-syst-sci.net/18/5025/2014/hess-18-5025-2014.pdf
mainly they are linking the fall of the empire to the water and virtual water
very interesting paper and credible conclusions I would say
Pliny the Younger (AD 98–AD 117)
in Erdkamp (2005): “Even the heavens can never prove so
kind as to enrich and favour every land alike. But he [the emperor]
can so join east and west by convoys that those people
who offer and those who need supplies . . . appreciate . . .
having one master to serve.”
