description: This lightweight controlled vocabulary suits the basic chronology of Noricum in Roman antiquity. While large parts of the periods related to Norican history correspond to the established period classification of the Roman Empire and Late Antiquity, especially in the earlier and later periods, the dating deviates. Furthermore, specific time ranges have partly their own established (and specifically used) terminology, so a separate presentation seems useful. The dataset was created in the course of the PhD project "Roman Rural Landscapes in Noricum. Archaeological Studies on Roman Settlements in the Hinterland of Northern Noricum," which deals with archaeological settlement activities in a precisely defined study area in the northern (today Lower Austrian) hinterland of the former Roman province of Noricum. Sustainable documentation of the chronology for the former ancient Roman province of Noricum is consequently needed but, in terms of controlled vocabulary, a desiderate. While large parts of such a chronology correspond to the established period classification of the Roman imperial period and late antiquity, especially in the earlier and later phases, the dating deviates regarding Noricum's specific local and regional history. Furthermore, specific time ranges have their own established (and specifically used) terminology, so a separate dataset seems useful. Therefore, this authority is based on significant scholarly publications that provide sustainable information about Noricum's periods, using relevant literature. The most important contributions is "Gassner, Verena; Jilek, Sonja; Ladstätter, Sabine (2002): Am Rande des Reiches. Die Römer in Österreich. Österreichische Geschichte 15 v. Chr.–378 n. Chr. Vienna: Ueberreuter. " and still represents the most comprehensive account of the Roman period's archaeology for the former Roman provinces on Austria's present-day territory. This fact is especially actual for the holistic presentation of all aspects of archaeology concerning the province of Noricum. Apart from "Alföldy, Géza (1974): Noricum. London: Routledge, Taylor &amp; Francis Group. ", no other overview is currently (as of 2021) available. Further, data provided by "Epigraphische Datenbank Heidelberg. Heidelberger Akademie der Wissenschaften, 2017. " give a comprehensive overview of chronological information for the Roman Empire, where the province of Noricum is part of. Supplementary data was received from "Gassner, Verena; Pülz, Andreas (ed.) (2015): Der römische Limes in Österreich. Vienna: Verlag der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften. ".
