dc.description.abstractThe land walls of Constantinople, built in the early years of the 5th century, substantially reinforced the city's defenses while contributing to the creation of the capital's urban identity. This paper considers a rarely touched-upon subject, that of the usage of agricultural spaces within the land walls and their immediate vicinity. The presence of horticultural activities noted along present-day sections of the land walls represents the intangible memory of patterns of usage now traceable to the Late Antique period.
