Vindolanda Roman Fort | Northern England | 4K

The fort and town of Vindolanda is located near the ancient roman frontier, in the rolling hills of northern England. While there are many ruined forts around the area of Hadrian's wall, this location in particular contains some of the most well preserved roman artifacts found anywhere in the world, including some unique pieces never before discovered. The site is most famous for its hundreds of preserved wooden writing tablets from Roman times, with texts that can still be deciphered.

Thanks for sharing ! This is the kind of footage I'd like somebody to make years after Time Team has been excavating new sites and university teams have continued digging...

Given the high percentage of German auxilia forces at the fort I think Vindolanda might be a latinized form of Proto-Germanic *Windōgardiz which would actually mean 'The Windy place' or *Windōlandau.

The leather bikini bottom found at Vindolanda could easily be mistaken for a modern outfit,. Very stylish and of course very revealing.

How did corn get to Britain that the natives had plenty off

[@Wotsitorlabart]

In Britain 'corn' is a general term for wheat, barley and oats - they grow in 'cornfields'. It is not the 'corn on the cob' variety.

When the Britons brought corn to trade in wagons , corn
