Bryan Ward-Perkins Quotes
In southern and central Italy, for example, both the Greek colonies and the Etruscan territories have provided much more evidence of trade and sophisticated native industries than can be found in post-Roman Italy.

The same cannot be said of the immediately post-Roman centuries.
