Abstract

The impact of the 'urban graveyard effect' on the population of Rome must have been less important than commonly held by quite a few ancient historians. Since especially skeletal evidence would suggest that migration was still quantitatively important during the first and the second century CE, the population of Rome must have considerably increased from the level attained in the Augustan age.
