The Roman frontier section of Pannonia has been the subject of extensive studies in recent decades, augmented by constant improvements in digital methodology as well as the pending UNESCO World Heritage Nomination of selected sites and their related touristic development (within the framework of the transnational nomination titled “Frontiers of the Roman Empire – The Danube Limes” [FREDL]).
Significant discoveries from the last five years have been unpublished so far, thus emerged the idea to collect and present these findings in a standalone volume. The present book contains eleven articles on the results of recent research conducted on the Hungarian section of the Danube limes. Three writings provide overviews on current geophysical prospections and underwater archaeology concerning several sites of the Roman frontiers as well as novities on the monetary history of Pannonia. The subseuqent 8 articles present researches on various sites along the Danube, including temporary camps, auxiliary forts, Late Roman fortifications and watchtowers. Seventeen authors contributed to the volume from archaeological institutions and private firms all over Hungary.
Our latest volume titled “The Danube Limes in Hungary” is available for download as separate articles here or as a single volume here.
