guy 156 Report post Posted August 30, 2023 Eboracum Roman Festival 2023 York has had many recent Roman finds. A Roman legionary stronghold was established in the first century AD and the civilian town was known as Eboracum. (Interestingly, two Roman emperors died at Eboracum: Septimius Severus in AD 211 and Constantius Chlorus in 306.) Planned excavations to extend the Ibis Hotel in York will take in consideration that a Roman community once existed at the site. https://yorkmix.com/experts-to-hunt-for-roman-graveyard-under-york-hotel/ Previous posts about York: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
