guy Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago A previously unknown Roman city has been discovered in modern Austria on the Danube frontier. It is estimated that the city last from about AD 80 till AD 180. A large amphitheater seating about 8000 people was discovered (pictured above). Researchers suspect the site may be Claudivium, a town recorded by Ptolemy. Coin evidence suggests abandonment around the death of Marcus Aurelius, when Commodus shifted frontier strategy. https://www.heritagedaily.com/2026/09/lost-roman-city-discovered-on-the-danube-frontier-in-austria/159445 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
