The important implication is that the continuity in cult places between the pre-Roman and Roman periods, indicated by archaeological discoveries, may mask profound political and cultic changes at sanctuary sites. No doubt some of Sterk's views will raise discussion and debate, but it is exactly his provocative approach, as well as the breadth of his analysis, that make this book essential reading for any graduate course on the History and Archaeology of Republican Italy.
