The final frontier : Scotland's early Roman landscape

Tibbs, Andrew (Archaeologist)2024
Books, Manuscripts
Although the most visible high-water marks of the Roman Empire in Britain are Hadrian's Wall and the Antonine Wall, less is known about the fortifications which marked the early Roman forays into Scotland before the Romans decided that the land was ungovernable. Using maps, diagrams, reconstructions and archaeological evidence, Andrew Tibbs unveils these important military bastions and explores the strategic and tactical context in which they were built.
