Quote:Thankyou for posting details of this site. I had never heard of it. The neighbouring fort at Timacum Minus (near Vratarnica in Serbia, I think) seems well-known, with inscriptional evidence of successive garrisons (e.g. J.J. Wilkes, "The Roman Danube", JRS 95, 2005, p. 190). Is the fort at Cambustica/Conbustica (Wilkes has "Combustica") a recent discovery?Salve, Duncan, Conbustica is not a recent discovery. It's dicovered more than a century ago by hungarian archaeologist Felix Canitz. But after that only 'black archaeologists' were digging there. But from 2008 year, we had already three archaeological expeditions. So I hope, that we'll finally find the name of auxiliary unit, that stood there.
