thanks for your reply
will have to take a look at those links you posted when I will have more time

A "quick'n dirty one" before bedtime:

Interesting pics/maps.
Author Günter van Meegen once again does a very good job here.
As I'm too tired in short:
The points in favour of this place being "Arenacium/Harenatium"(rather than Rindern) add up.
The "big roundup" will be by February 2016 on occasion of the congress "Archäologie im Rheinland“/Archeology in the Rhineland"
Things stay interesting -- to say the least.

So far , so good

Slight update with pics:

In short:
1)Dolabra found
2)Coinage too corroded for exact Dating.
3)Jug Points towards 1st Cent. AD
4)Camp presumed identical to "Arenacum"
