Summary/Abstract: This note makes some remarks on a recent volume, edited by eminent scholars in ancient history and epigraphy, that provides a new edition of the inscription that carries the regulations for the customs dues of the Roman province of Asia: together with a translation into English and a rendering of the text back into Latin, the reader will find in the book an excellent line-by-line commentary assigned to six scholars, and five essays brought out from the text of the customs law itself on themes of importance for the administrative, social and political history of the Roman Empire. The volume will certainly become a fundamental reference tool for the scholars of ancient Rome, and in particular for those interested in the Eastern part of the Empire.
