Stevens, receiving a diploma in Classical Archaeology in 1962, and a DPhil in 1968.[1] Her dissertation on Roman Trier and the Treveri was published as a monograph in 1970.[1] Wightman lectured at the University of Leicester from 1965–69,[1] before joining the Department of History at McMaster University in 1969,[2] replacing her predecessor Edward Togo Salmon as Professor of Ancient History.[1] Wightman undertook archaeological fieldwork in the Mediterranean as part of three projects; at Monte Irsi under the direction of Alaster Small,[2][3] as co-director of the Second Canadian Team excavations at Carthage alongside Colin Wells,[4] and as the director of the multidisciplinary field survey project in the Liri Valley, Italy.[5] Wightman's work has been described as a "model of how to combine literary, epigraphic, and archaeological data with caution and imagination[6] Research for Gallia Belgica involved annual research visits to archaeological institutes in Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands.[7] Her posthumously published survey of Gallia Belgica has been described as "magisterial",[8] and John Percival stated that "it is hard to think of a better study of an individual Roman province in terms of comprehensiveness and reliability".[9] Underlying her work was a "concern for the Roman countryside and its population".[2] She was noted for her skill as a researcher and as a teacher,[2] and as "a much loved and respected scholar".[9] Wightman was murdered on 17 December 1983.[1] HonoursWightman was elected as a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 1973, a foreign associate member of the Société des Antiquaires de France in 1976, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 1982.[1] Works
