Use when targeting The Journal of Roman Studies (JRS) or deciding whether a Roman history, archaeology, epigraphy, literature, or material-culture manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's Roman-world fit, the primary-evidence argument bar, epigraphic/archaeological and original-language expectations, classics house style and anonymization norms, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

When to use

• Roman history, archaeology, epigraphy, literature, or material-culture manuscript fit check
• Re-framing descriptive or local studies into evidence-driven arguments
• Choosing between JRS and Greek/Latin philology or specialist archaeology/epigraphy venues
• Checking JRS primary-evidence bar and desk-reject heuristics
• Roman history across Republic, Empire, and Late Antiquity
• Epigraphy and documentary evidence arguments
• Roman archaeology and material culture historical arguments
• Numismatics and art integrated into historical or cultural arguments

When not to use

• Descriptive catalogue with no argument
• Thesis floating above its evidence
• Replacing the journal's current submission guidelines
