dc.description.abstract | No city feeds itself. Unlike a village or a small town, a city depends on a vast array of outsiders to acquire, distribute and process food. Most essentially, provisioning relies on a number of services: people to transport food, middlemen and women to buy and resell it to consumers and skilled artisans to process a variety of products in preparation for consumption. Through the city gates, food supplies reach the market every day. Food provisioning represents the lifeline of the urban inhabitants. For the purpose of this study, the term 'city' refers to the urban settlements embracing the Grand Harbour of Malta. Cospicua, Senglea, Vittoriosa, Valletta and Floriana came to form this urban conglomerate, physically defined from the rural counterpart by an interlocking pattern of defensive walls. | en_GB |
