This volume, Life and Death in a Multicultural Harbour City: Ostia Antica from the Republic through Late Antiquity, includes 50 articles with numerous illustrations, written by international scholars active in the research of Ostia and Portus, the harbour city and the harbour area of ancient Rome.

This volume is the result of the project "Segrerated or Integrated? - Living and Dying in the Harbour City of Ostia, 300 BCE- 700 CE," financed by the Academy of Finland and Tampere University (2015-2019), in collaboration with Parco Archeologico di Ostia Antica, Stockholm University (Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies), Soprintendenza Speciale Archeologia, Belle Arti e Paesaggio di Roma, and Centre of Molecular Anthropology for Ancient DNA Studies at the University of Rome "Tor Vergata", as well as University of Kent (School of European Culture and Languages) and Università Niccolò Cusano, Rome. This collaboration, including the Museum Centre Vapriikki at Tampere, Finland, Museo della Civiltà Romana at Rome and Museo Nazionale Romano, was also in the centre for the creation of the exhibition "Ostia, Gateway to Rome", now on display at Museum Centre Vapriikki until 10th January 2021. The volume includes also the catalogue of objects on display in the exhibition.
