I'll be beginning a large research project at my university in the coming days. As an Anthropology student, I hold a very strong interest in how cultural shifts effect other things, and how those things will, in turn, turn around to change those very same cultural trends. So I thought this would be a fitting topic of study. I won't ask you to do all my research for me, but this is a fairly large topic, and I would really appreciate some tidbits of information to get me started and to push me in the right direction. (If you have any pointers on some online resources I can use to further my research, that would be greatly appreciated as well!)
I think I might be able to get you something, but "Roman Empire" is a bit broad. Think you could narrow the window down a little bit? :) What time period specifically?
