| Summary: | Anyone who has delved into Roman archaeology understands the importance of brickstamps as an archaeological tool.

Considerably less of its ancient core has been excavated, many of its standing buildings have not been thoroughly studied, and the identification and chronology of many of its monuments continue to elude scholars. |
