"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867

No, except that it has a few features that can be observed with the Castleford and Valkenburg caligae, which puts them into the late 1st (or maybe early 2nd) century AD IMHO.
Cheers,

Is the Valkenburg dating really that late I understood it was mid first century?, the caliga I think it looks most like though is on page 133, No 30 of Romeins Lederwerk uit Valkenburg..
