The DANUBIUS project organised two successive workshops in the framework of international congresses of archaeology, first at the 24. International Limes Congress in 2018, second at the 26th EAA Annual Meeting in 2020, on Christianity on the border areas of the Roman Empire.

The collection of case studies which were presented in 2018 and 2020 gave rise to a whole series of new historical questions and unexpected results. Some of the main elements of the dossier will be published in the third supplement to the Frontière·s journal, which will be entitled: Christianity at the Frontiers. Some Case Studies from the Roman and Late Antique Periods.

The aim of this call for papers is to complete this dossier with some new cases studies, mainly for the regions that were not represented or less represented during the 2018 and 2020 workshops: Britain, Gaul, Germany, Caucasus, North-Eastern Anatolia, the Middle East and Egypt.
