Some notes on Romanization of different areas in Dalmatia through epigraphic evidence: the situation of women

The word ‘Romanization’ and the corresponding concept have largely been disputed by scholars over the last twenty years, but one cannot deny that in the Roman Empire the provincials went through an assimilation to the culture of Roman and Italy. Given this assumption, five towns of Dalmatia — Flanona, Asseria, Iader, Rider and Municipium S(plonistarum ?) — will be chosen with a view to testing the level of Romanization of women — generally lower than that of the men — in the different contexts of the province through their monuments, the onomastics and the gods mostly invoked by them.
