They contented themselves with forming huge estates (latifundia) rudely cultivated by slaves, or with transforming the old yeomen into small farmers (coloni) who were contented to work on by the old superannuated processes. But now that the provinces, and particularly Asia, had been over-exploited by Italian financiers and ruined by a devastating war, they ceased to be so profitable a field for new investment, and capital began once more to flow back to the land.
Thus it was that the wasted Ita...lian countryside began to blossom once more into its old prosperity. The first signs of 124 GREATNESS AND DECLINE OF ROME 77 B.C.
