I was a visitor at Ribchester museum last year and bought a book by Duncan B Campbell phD titled, Mons Graupius Rome's battle at the edge of the world.
It gives the mountain of Bennachie as the most likely spot because appropriate size marching camps were found en route, also the profile of Bennachie and the spacious terrain about it suit the description of Tacitus.
The only missing element is recovery of equipment and weapons, but there have been no such finds anywhere else either.Maybee someone will follow that up?
The source was published by Osprey; ISBN 978-1-84603-926-3.
