It is thought this unit was devoid of its typical equitate cohorts, at least for this particular fort.
Quote:I don't think your wrong Yuri for I've just had another look at that drawing then at Google earth, if the dotted line is to be considered the supposed fort wall the south end would fall over not exactly what is a cliff but what is a very steep gradient. The supposed fort is just too elongated to be true infact almost twice the size it should be, I think it would be a push to even get 4 barrack blocks into.
Yes that is exactly what I thought too. So im not sure whether I follow that drawing or not. Like I said, 4 barracks blocks can probably be put into the fort, but it would be nowhere near as elongated as shown in that sketch, but rather more like a square. I will expand this discussion in the forum proper to see what other valuable opinions we may have.
