This book explores the complex, tumultuous, and brutal interaction between the world’s first superpower and the peoples who would ultimately form the country we now call Scotland.
For over three centuries, the inhabitants of North Britain faced the might of Rome, resulting in some of the most extraordinary archaeology of the ancient world.This richly illustrated new history of Roman Scotland explores the complex, often tumultuous and frequently brutal interaction between the world''s first superpower and the peoples who lived north of Hadrian''s Wall.With reference to the latest research and featuring all the key sites, it offers though-provoking re-assessments of many aspects of the story of the Romans in Scotland, from the loss of the IXth Legion and the reasons for building and maintaining Hadrian''s Wall, to considering what spurred at least four Roman emperors to personally visit the edge of the empire.
