Roman battlefield found deep inside Germany

[Robert Vermaat]

I just had a talk with Prof. Dr. Ubl about this on the phone. We agreed upon that we in fact cannot be sure that Romans were involved in this fight at all. In the light of the findings from the northern bogs as well as this specific article ([url:2dz1r1bs]http://www.illerup.dk/documents/illerup_81.pdf[/url]) it may very well be the case that this are the remains of German tribal fighting.

Roman objects in Illerup and other bogs were the minority among Germanic objects. How many Germanic objects were found on this battlefield, and what ratio was there between Roman and Germanic objects?

I mean, before we start reasoning away any Roman presence because it does not fit our current models of expectation.....
