British Urban Defences in Earthwork
Urban defences in Roman Britain and the dates of their erection have been discussed by various writers during the last three decades, and the subject has received renewed attention in three recent publications. The last of these has put forward views concerning both date and motivation which a wider consideration of the evidence makes hard to accept. In general, however, the outline of events is clear. Although certain cities received earthworks …

Hyginus and the First Cohort
During the course of discussions on the garrison of Inchtuthil with a pupil who is preparing the site for publication, it became clear that one of the site's most serious problems concerns the composition of the first cohort of the legion. The plan of the fortress shows the barracks of nine cohorts arranged with their centurion's quarters next to the via sagularis, each with six barracks per cohort. The position of the legion's first cohort, howe…

V.—The Silchester Church: The Excavation by Sir Ian Richmond in 1961
The reputed Romano-British church at Silchester was first excavated in 1892 by George Fox and W. H. St. John Hope in the third season of the Society's long campaign of excavations in that town.1 Claimed as a church by the excavators in their report of 1893, it has usually been so accepted; but the lack of decisive evidence for this interpretation was emphasized by Professor J. M. C. Toynbee in 1953, nor was the date of the building at all certain…

Verulamium, Three Roman Cities
Verulamium was the third largest city in Roman Britain (200 acres within the walls). Its place in the Roman province was thus commensurate with the part it has played in modern assessments of the history and culture of Roman Britain. The excavations undertaken between 1930 and 19-34 by Dr and Mrs R. E. M. Wheeler were amongst the first scientific excavations of Roman towns in this country, and their report was certainly the first to interpret the…
Excavations at Verulamium 1957. Third Interim Report
The third season of excavations at Verulamium, inaugurated by the Research Committee of this Society, lasted from 4th July to 24th August 1957. The main area investigated lay along the edge of the allotment field between the theatre and the forum; this area was not accessible previously for reasons mentioned in last year's report, and in consequence much work had to be fitted into the time available, and even so, the lowest levels were not comple…
Excavations at Verulamium 1956. Second Interim Report
The excavations at Verulamium inaugurated by the Research Committee of this Society were continued a second season from 9th July to 31st August 1956. They were far more extended than had been planned, for shortly before the start news was received that work on the new road was expected to begin early in 1957, much earlier than had been anticipated. It became necessary, therefore, to double the scale of operations in order that no major site shoul…

Excavations at Verulamium, 1960: Sixth Interim Report
The sixth season at Verulamium lasted a period of five weeks from 20th July to 24th August 1960. As the last full season of the current programme, it was designed to test one or two specific questions and to complete work already begun. Trenches were cut in insulae XIX and XXVIII in an attempt to define the south-east and south-west sides respectively of the suspected Claudian fort, but met with no success. In insula XIV a small area still outsta…
Excavations at Verulamium 1958. Fourth Interim Report
Excavations were carried out by the Verulamium Excavation Committee, on behalf of the Research Committee of this Society, for a fourth season lasting 71⁄2 weeks in July and August 1958. Work was confined to two areas. The plan of the extra-mural building (Site S) north-east of Verulamium on the opposite side of the river, beside the A5 road, was recovered in so far as affected by the new road which is soon to cover it; the remainder of the work w…

Excavations at Verulamium, 1961. Seventh and Final Interim Report
Two small-scale excavations were carried out at Verulamium during 1961. In January it became necessary to explore the site about to be occupied by the museum extension, and several trenches were cut on the north-east and south-east sides of the existing museum building. It was not possible in the time and with the resources available to excavate down to natural soil, but only to examine those layers due for removal by the builders. Considerable d…
Some Romano-British Sculptures from Ancaster and Wilsford, Lincolnshire
The purpose of this paper is to record three stones recently brought to my attention. The first was found about twenty years ago by Mr. Benjamin Wyles when digging a dyke in a field called the Long Liner near Slate House Farm, in the parish of Wilsford near Grantham. It is preserved in Wilsford church and is published by the kind permission of the Rector, the Rev. J. D. Smart. The other two, which are fragmentary, were found in the core of the no…
Excavations at Verulamium 1959. Fifth Interim Report
The fifth season of the current Verulamium Excavations lasted from 29th July to 23rd September 1959, a period of 8 weeks of exceptionally dry weather. Work was done on a slightly smaller scale than previously, the highest daily number of helpers being about 75. The main work was undertaken in insulae XIV, XXI, XXVII, and XXVIII; in addition a trench was cut in the Theatre and another through the defences on the north-east side of insula XVIII

Excavations at Verulamium, 1955. Interim Report
Late in 1954 it became known that plans existed for a new road across the site of Verulamium. This new highway is to enter the Roman city along the line of Bluehouse Hill, and from the angle at the entrance to the Gorhambury Drive will strike across the fields to the A.5 road at Batchwood Drive. Its line thus bisects the city, and the work will involve the destruction or sealing of important Roman sites including the northern edge of the Forum
