Thank you for all of your hard work since we returned to school in September and for every piece of work you have completed this week. I hope you all have a lovely break and please stay safe – I can’t wait to see you all again on Monday 2nd November. Emotional well-being Today I want you to celebrate being you! Think about what makes you unique – be proud of the fact you are unique. You completed a piece of RE work earlier in the week and the general the me that came from it is that the world would be a pretty boring place if everyone was the same. Think of a good friend, or your group of friends… think of three ways that you are similar to each other and three ways that you are different. Don’t just focus on physical appearance – think about the things you enjoy, what you’re good at and what makes you special. Time for prayer and reflection We all need people in our lives who recognise our unique qualities and why we are special. We need these people to encourage us when we reach challenges in our lives – no matter how big or small. Take a moment to think about someone who does this for you and give thanks for them. Dear God, Thank you that I am special to you. Thank you that there is nobody else exactly the same as me.

Join us as we travel in the footsteps of the Roman legions, exploring what remains of their cities, fortresses, villas, bath houses and roads.

With a private guide we take a walking tour around the London Wall, a defensive wall built by Romans that defined the city’s boundaries until the Late Middle Ages. Though the wall was demolished in the 17th century, the ruins can still be traced through private and public properties. Our London city tour also includes a visit to the remains of an ancient temple devoted to the mystery god Mithras, and a trip to the Museum of London, which houses relics of the original temple.

  • The Chester ‘Command’ System C
    The Chester ‘Command’ System c. 71-96 C.E. by Tristan Price A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Classical Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2019 © Tristan Price 2019 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This thesis centres on the operations of the Chester ‘command’ system in the region of North Wales, roughly from the first year in which Petilius Cerialis served as the governor of Britain to the death of Emperor Domitian. Despite the several auxiliary forts that were occupied simultaneously during this period, seven military stations have been selected to demonstrate the direct application of Roman rule in the region imposed by a fortified network of defences and communications: the legionary fortress of Chester, the fortress at Wroxeter, the fort at Forden Gaer, along with Caersws II, Pennal, Caernarfon, and Caerhun. After the fortress at Wroxeter was abandoned c. 90 C.E. the fortress of Chester held sole legionary authority and administered control over the auxiliary units stationed in North Wales and the Welsh midlands. Each fort within this group was strategically positioned to ensure the advantages of its location and environment were exploited. The sites of Wroxeter, Forden Gaer, Caersws II, and Pennal were not only placed on the same road (RR64) to maintain a reliable communications system across the Severn valley, but the paths through which indigenous people could travel north or south were limited as each military post controlled access to the preferred land routes over the River Severn and the River Dyfi.

  • Chester's Amphitheatre After Rome: a Centre of Christian Worship?
    Chester’s amphitheatre after Rome: a centre of Christian worship? Keith J Matthews Introduction The Roman amphitheatre at Chester was discovered in 1929 and has since been a subject of fascination, speculation and controversy. Following a major excavation that uncovered the northern two-fifths in the 1960s1, it was long assumed that there was little more to be said about the site. However, when the present writer began work on a Research Agenda for the site during the 1990s, it rapidly became apparent that there were many questions left unanswered, not least about the late Roman and post-Roman history of the site. In an attempt to deal with some of these questions, Chester City Council approached English Heritage in 2000 for permission to undertake small-scale excavations. As a result, English Heritage commissioned the City‟s Archaeological Service to undertake fieldwork, which has lasted for four seasons, from 2000 to 2003. This is not the place to report on those excavations (which will be fully dealt with at a future date elsewhere), but it has become important to put a number of new discoveries and reinterpretations into the public realm. In particular, new evidence for the late Roman and early medieval use of the site renders it of potentially national (if not international) significance. The amphitheatre and its Roman history The site chosen for the establishment of an amphitheatre lay to the south-east of the Roman fortress on a terrace above the River Dee that had previously been occupied by a large building that may have been a bathhouse3.

Cada dia es produeixen nous descobriments que permeten una nova perspectiva sobre la vida a la frontera, especialment en els aspectes més desconeguts o més difícils de conèixer, l’àmbit quotidià i la relació amb els nadius del nord del mur.
