Despite intermittent turbulence and destruction, much of the Roman West came under barbarian control in an orderly fashion. Goths, Burgundians, and other aliens were accommodated within the provinces without disrupting the settled population or overturning the patterns of landownership. Walter Goffart examines these arrangements and shows that they were based on the procedures of Roman taxation, rather than on those of military billeting (the so-called hospitalitas system), as has long been thought. Resident proprietors could be left in undisturbed possession of their lands because the proceeds of taxation,rather than land itself, were awarded to the barbarian troops and their leaders.

PREFACE

IN 1844, Ernst Theodor Gaupp published a work entitled The Germanic Settlements and Land-Divisions in the Provinces of the West Roman Empire. His main argument was that the Roman practice of compulsorily quartering soldiers on the civilian population played a vital part in the settlement of Burgundians and Goths in the western provinces during the fifth century. Gaupps findings soon became standard historical doctrine and have remained so ever since. They sharply modified the idea that the barbarians had been conquerors of Gaul and Italy. The Germanic establishments in these lands seemed, on the contrary, to have been carried out in cooperation with the Roman authorities and in conformity with existing laws.
