There are always excavations in Nijmegen. This report is about the Koekoekstraat cemetry. It tells that people were, in the second and third centuries, sometimes buried in coffins. This is unique, and the excavator believes it can only be explained by accepting the hypothesis that there were settlers from Anatolia or Syria. Perhaps soldiers?
