The Demography of Roman Egypt - Cambridge Studies in Population, Economy and Society in Past Time
Bagnall, Roger S. (Columbia University, New York)
This book reconstructs the demographic regime in Roman Egypt during the first three centuries AD, using as its main evidence the three hundred surviving census returns filed by ordinary declarants. The authors use modern demographic methods and models to reconstruct the patterns of mortality, marriage, fertility and migration that are likely to have prevailed in Roman Egypt.
