J. E. H. Spaul

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Edward Houghton Spaul[1] (1926–2018), known as J. E. H. Spaul and sometimes John Spaul, was a British ancient historian and epigrapher. Much of his work focused on the Army of the Roman Empire.

Biography[]

Spaul was born in Oakham in Rutland.[2] He studied at Durham University, where he edited Palatinate during Michaelmas term of 1948; completed a Diploma of Education (1951), and after some six years of study concurrent to his teaching career, earned his MLitt (1958) from the same institution.[3][1] His thesis, supervised by Eric Birley, was on the Roman province of Mauretania Tingitana.[4]

For a period of three years in the 1960s Spaul lived in Blantyre, Malawi, where he was a history teacher at the University of Malawi, before returning to the United Kingdom and settling in Longparish, near Andover, Hampshire.[5]
