A CHAPTER FROM THE PAST
Life along the Danube Limes.
S P Q R
Around AD 200–300, the Danube was one of Rome’s defining northern boundaries. Fortified positions at places such as Lauriacum, Vindobona and Carnuntum helped control movement through a frontier shared by soldiers, merchants, craftspeople and families. Roman roads, river traffic and settlements stitched these communities together.
Noricum and Pannonia encompassed parts of modern-day Austria and the neighbouring Danube lands. The frontier forts, Roman roads and trading settlements shown on our map offer a window into the world in which iron arrowheads of this type were used.
THE ART OF THE DISPLAY
RETURN TO THE COLLECTION ↑Each iron point is being individually mounted against a crisp white recessed mount, allowing its distinctive shape, weathered surface and craftsmanship to take centre stage. Together, the five pieces form our first Roman Frontier Collection.
