Legionaries in camps at Hadrian\'s wall

[Carlton Bach]

If you keep in mind that the majority of administrative and technical specialists came from the legions (at least as our evixdence indicates) it is quite likely that some legionaries were up at the wall, given it was an important centre for overseeing trade and managing native relations. And given how mobile some legion contingents seem to have been (evidence for Egypt indicates that hundreds, if not thousands, of men retzurned to their home base no more than once a year, and some were excused even that) I think you can make a case for legionaries being found pretty much anywhere.
