ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This chapter is much improved by the comments of other participants
at the Semple symposium. My thanks to them and to the editors, whom
I must also thank for their extreme patience and careful critique of an
earlier version. Mike Fulford’s (1994) review article ofRIBII suddenly
made clear a correlation of which I had been only dimly aware. I am also
grateful to the editors of theCambridge Ancient Historywho commis-
sioned me to contribute a chapter on literacy to volume XI and to Alison
Cooley for inviting me to comment on the Roman Archaeology Confer-
ence panel that became Cooley 2002. This chapter develops some ideas
that first appeared in both places.
