Summary: | The results of a second season of large-scale Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveys at Raphaneae indicate that the legionary fortress was unusually narrow, reaching less than 300 m in its north-south extension. South of the fortress the survey identified structures that are probably part of an Early Imperial civil settlement attached to the military base. Die Ergebnisse einer zweiten Kampagne großflächiger Georadarmessungen in Raphaneae zeigen, dass das Legionslager mit einer Nord-Süd-Ausdehnung von weniger als 300 m ungewöhnlich schmal war. Bei Baustrukturen, die südlich des Lagers erfasst wurden, handelt es sich wahrscheinlich um einen Teil der frühkaiserzeitlichen canabae legionis. |
