This international journal is the publication of the « Association for Late Antiquity » which was founded in Lyon to prepare for the International Congress of Christian Archaeology held there in 1986. The Association’s journal aims at enriching the study of written texts from the fourth to the eighth centuries by setting these into a wider context using a multidisciplinary approach covering history, archaeology, epigraphy, law and philology.
