Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
An examination of the division of labour between legions on the building of the wall uses the structural evidence of turrets, milecastles and the curtain together with epigraphic material but draws different conclusions from those of Stevens. Different structures and lengths can be attributed to different legions in the first stage of wall construction and in the building of forts when legions were re-deployed. A review of the evidence suggests AD 122 for the start of wall building, 124 for the dislocation of the first stage and 126-7 for the decision to narrow the wall. Evidence for the building of the Turf wall is uncertain without further excavation. BLC | ||
