Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Considers evidence for two distinct periods of occupation during the Antonine period, predominantly on the basis of archaeological and epigraphic evidence but also considering historical reasons for this interpretation of the evidence and presenting a current interpretation based on the primary evidence itself. The sites at Strageath outpost fort and Outerwards fortlet have been thought to present unequivocal evidence of two-period occupation and are considered in detail. Challenging the idea of two periods of occupation raises questions about the date of final abandonment of the eponymous wall. The nature of Roman occupation and reasons for withdrawal, particularly the part played by the indigenous peoples in resisting Roman expansion, are also called into question. There is an `Appendix: evidence for Antonine I & II from excavated sites in Scotland' (43--9) which provides an alphabetical list of sites and evidence. | |||
