Kalkriese is not the Varus battle site ?
#44
Did they find coins in Kalkriese as to be able to date the finds? So if it's in that time span it could be one of the places where a portion of Varus Army was attacked.
Sure, we can't be sure it really is the place of the battle but when the army was indeed attacked on the march then there must be other places where you could find weapon, gear, etc...

Someone mentions Alesia... Were there many weapon finds there such as weapons or was it just arrow head, sling stone, etc... It was a siege so everything must have been much concentrated there.

What about other roman battles. Can you compare finds with those battle fields?
Tot ziens.
