Fiscalita Ed Epigrafia Nel Mondo Romano: Atti Del Convegno Internazionale

he study of fiscal issues has always benefited from the contribution of epigraphy: various provisions issued by the competent authorities and made public carved on stone or other durable materials have made it possible to know the names of certain taxes, those responsible for collecting them, their scope and, more rarely, some of the collection procedures; on the other hand, the names and duties of many actors in the tax field have been transmitted by the funerary epigraphs. However, while there is a considerable amount of information on ancient taxation, many questions remain unanswered. The contributions presented at the international conference held in Catania from June 29 to 30, 2019 and published in this volume are intended to shed light on a number of issues concerning the Roman tax system and to formulate new hypotheses regarding much debated and so far unresolved issues.
