"I am not aware of any specific research, although there are plenty of theories." -Renatus
just a recap to save Robert V trawling through the old posts. Theoretically this site should be easier to pin point than the final Battle as we know where Cerialis was coming from and where he was going to. I favour Bartlow as a reason to have those massive butrial mounds at the bottom of a valley confluence;

Camden identified Wandlebury Ring as the site of teh final battle so I onder if that might be the site of the IX disaster;
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandlebury_Hill_Fort
Alternatively it could be both as a running battle or attempt at a fighting retreat.
I must admit I'm not even aware of the other plentiful theories Robert KM alludes to. Could you name some Robert?
