Map of Roman army themed museums, sites
#1
Updating my work in progress. This is a google map of all the museums and sites with Roman army themes and artifacts. It also includes Celtic, Etruscan, Carthaginian, naval, and some specific others. Just added a bunch of suggestions from FB, including a number in the Balkans, though I am not sure what they have in their collections as they don't have English options. 

Suggestions welcome. I seem to be lacking for France, for example.

Hello Richard,

Great project! Thank you. I would suggest two more sites:

1) Gerulata in Bratislava-Rusovce (Slovakia). There was a Roman fort. Now some remains are visible and there is a small museum.

2) In Mikulov (Czech Republic) there is a small museum with artefacts from archaeological excavations of the site of a Roman base at Mušov-Hradisko (or Burgstall) from the Marcomannic wars.

I have just added the Pisa Museum of Ships to the map. Descriptions say it is a 'work in progress'. Anyone been there lately to give an update? And, it is said to have the most complete ancient Roman boat anywhere. Any photos of that?

I just looked and do have it on there. Also have the Wroxeter Roman vinyard, though I am not sure if they are actually growing Roman era varietals or just like the name for tourists.
