Roman research project has become the passion of a lifetime - Scotland / News / The Courier | Archaeology News | Scoop.it

WHEN DR David J Wooliscroft and his colleagues began their study into the Roman Empire’s first land frontier, they believed they had enough work to last three or four years.

The sheer scale of the archaeological remains left behind in Scotland has now left the eminent archaeologist convinced the project will outlive him.

The team working on The Roman Gask Project will return to Perthshire and Angus this year in the hope of completing just one element of their investigations.

Experience has already told them that each visit to the regions’ legionary fortresses, fort camps and signal stations will only raise further questions about the occupation between 43 and 410 AD.
