Megalopolis was the name given to a Peloponnesian city that was founded around 371-368 BCE. Though planned on a grand scale, the city failed to realize the dreams of the founders, and it declined by the late Roman period. This book examines the social, economic, and demographic changes that have taken place in Megalopolis.
