Lost’ 2nd-century Roman fort discovered in Scotland


Archaeologists have found the foundations of a “misplaced” second-century Roman fort in western Scotland — a part of an ill-fated effort to increase the empire’s management all through Britain.

The fort was one in all as much as 41 defensive buildings constructed alongside the Antonine Wall — a fortification of primarily earthworks and wooden that ran for about 40 miles (65 kilometers) throughout Scotland at its narrowest level, in keeping with Historic Atmosphere Scotland (opens in new tab) (HES), a authorities company.
