Since 2015, excavations have been carried out in different parts of the legionary fortress in Brigetio. Due to the systematic geophysical surveys of the praetentura, a large building complex came to ...light, which could be identified as the bath of the fortress, even before the fieldworks started in the territory. In the area of this building complex, the excavations started in 2021, and continued in the next two years. Now, an approximately 1800 m2 surface of the bath is excavated. During the last season of the fieldwork several heated and unheated rooms and three new (possible) pools and four praefurnia were unearthed. The north-eastern closure of the bath was identified, and parts of the northern apses of the basilica thermarum were unearthed. A huge number of coins and bronze small finds were discovered, and thanks to the brick stamps, some new data have become available on troop movements and military history of the Pannonian ripa.
Mike Davis (1946-2022) war ein einzigartiger öffentlicher Intellektueller, der wissenschaftliches, aktivistisches und populäres Denken in so unterschiedlichen Forschungsbereichen wie Stadt, ...Arbeiterbewegung, Marxismus, städtische politische Ökologie, Geschichte, Pandemien und viele andere mehr beeinflusste. Er war ein überlebensgroßer Mensch, ein Selfmade-Renaissance-Mann, ein Kämpfer, der Verbindungen herstellte. Er war auch ein Freund. Ich habe ihn so in Erinnerung.
This paper is based on the author's earlier archaeological excavations at St Clemens Church in Helsingborg as well as an investigation in 1987 immediately to the north of the church. On this occasion ...part of a ditch from a supposed medieval ring fort, estimated to be about a 7o m in diameter, was unexpectedly found. This discovery once again raised the question as to whether an early ring fort had existed here, as suggested by the place name. The probability of such is strengthened by the newly discovered ring forts in south-western Scania: Borgeby and Trelleborg. In terms of time these have been ranked with four circular fortresses in Denmark found much earlier, the dendrochronological dating of which is 980/981. The discoveries of the Scanian ring forts have thrown new light on south Scandinavian history during the period AD 950—1050. This paper can thus be regarded as a contribution to the debate.
While the legionary fortress of Brigetio is one of the key sites in the province of Roman Pannonia, its inner structure and buildings are almost unknown. Although the retentura of the legionary ...fortress is almost entirely covered by modern buildings, the praetentura can be researched using remote sensing methods. Over the past few years, systematic excavations took place in the praetentura, based on results of the geophysical surveys. A large building complex was identified as the bath of the legionary fortress, with an area of at least 4,000 m2. In the excavation seasons 2021 and 2022, about 1,200 m2 of the bath was unearthed. Several cold and hot rooms, pools, sewers, hypocaust systems and praefurnia were found, yielding abundant find material. In the present state of research, the chronological periods and building phases of the bath are mostly unknown. The only chronological data comes from the in situ stamped bricks of the Legio XI Claudia, dating the earliest period of the bath between AD 101 and 105, which was also the earliest period of the legionary camp. From the Late Roman Period, some tegulae with the names of Lupicinus tribunus and Frigeridus dux have been preserved, which indicate building activity in the last third of the 4th century AD.

Fortification calls to mind images of high walls establishing clear lines between inside and outside and immobilizing enemies. However, even the most seemingly inert fortifications rely on subtle ...forms of mobility and more elaborate spatial relations. This article examines fortification as a technique of power in which warfare, the design of the built environment, and the organization of space are intertwined. Where research on fortification tends to emphasize the symbolic, sovereign aspirations of wall-building, the approach advanced here focuses on the spatial technologies and infrastructural projects of military architecture and engineering that remake space through martial means. The article follows the trajectory within military architecture by which linear fortifications became defense in depth and asks how transformations of ‘depth’ in contemporary warfare have come to integrate more complex, non-linear notions of space and time. By tracing the ways in which the curtain wall of Vauban’s bastion fortress transformed into the radar curtain, I argue that fortification constitutes a ‘becoming war’ in which ‘defensive’ war intensifies organized violence. As such, the concept of fortification proves indispensable for understanding the reinforced boundaries and delineated pathways cutting across the global space of contemporary warfare.
This research is a quantitative research with an experimental method using a 2x2 factorial design. The aim of this study was to reveal the effect of playing baseball and bashing accompanied by ...motivation to practice on improving motor skills. The population in this study were all students of Rejang Lebong 112 Public Elementary School, totaling 290 students. The sample in this study were 32 male students in class V. The statistical analysis used in this study was the two-way ANOVA test to test the hypothesis that baseball games and strength accompanied by motivation to practice have an influence on motor skills. The results showed that 1) There were differences in the motor skills of Rejang Lebong 112 Elementary School students who used the baseball training method and the fortification training method. 2) There is an interaction between training methods and training motivation on motor skills. 3) In the group with high training motivation, the baseball training method was more effective than the strength training method on motor skills. 4) In the low training motivation group, the baseball training method was also more effective than the strength training method on motor skills. The baseball training method is more effective than the fortification training method for motor skills.
Abstract
This study uses library research. The data used in this research is secondary data. The data collection technique is carried out by reading, studying, and recording various literature or ...reading materials, in the form of report documents such as the 2018
Wuna
City Fortress Mapping Report by the South Sulawesi Cultural Heritage Conservation Center (BPCB), books, journals, articles, etc, that are relevant to the characteristics of the Fortress of
Wuna
City which will be related to the theory of the provisions of the OUV (Outstanding Universal Values) assessment by UNESCO. The result shows that the area of the Fortress of
Wuna
City reaches 265 Ha, so it can be categorized as a monument viz an element or structure. The result of UOV analysis (on the 2
nd
criterion) shows the value of fort architecture as a strong defense system from enemy attacks. This fort is in the form of a labyrinthine tunnel, built on 2 cliff sides while the slope is between 45–90° with a maximum height of 17.48 m from the ground. On top of the fort’s wall structure, there are 23 bastions as a place to guard the royal soldiers. Apart from that, the fortress of
Wuna
City also shows the value of urban planning. The people of Muna have known
‘the city’
since 1538. In addition to the fort, supporting facilities that show modern knowledge today is also found in the site.
