Altre informazioni:
Vindolanda Roman fort and village (vicus) lies just south of Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland and is one of the most important archaeological sites in Europe. Due to the damp boggy nature of the ground upon which the fort was built archaeologists have benefited from a wealth of well preserved artifacts for example leather materials such as saddles, clothing and footwear. Most important have been the discovery of thousands of wooden writing tablets many of which still contain fragments of letters and accounts detailing aspects of daily life on the northern frontier of the Roman Empire between the 1st and 4th centuries AD.
