Informations supplémentaires

Roman wall & Multangular Tower at NW corner of the legionary fortress of Eboracum, York, England, UK. This SW wall of the fortress was reconstructed by Constantine the Great, Roman emperor AD 306-337, with two great corner towers & six polygonal-fronted interval towers in between. The lower stones & brick are original Roman work, the upper masonry is medieval (C13th). This stretch of fort wall faced the River Ouse with the colonia settlement for Roman citizens on its opposite bank. In the time of Emperor Vespasian (AD 69-79) York became the new depot for the Ninth Legion. Under Septimius Severus (AD 193-211) Roman Britain was divided into two provinces, York became the capital city of Britannia Inferior with London the capital of Britannia Superior.
