Varia Castrensia: Haltern, Oberaden, Anreppen

In the present volume, several authors present new finds from the Roman encampments of Haltern, Oberaden and Anreppen on the right bank of the Rhine in seven contributions. The first three contributions by K. Roth-Rubi, B. Rudnick and G. Schneider deal with the stamped Terra Sigillata found in Haltern and Oberaden over the past few decades and clearly document the places of origin of the ceramic with detailed diagrams and tables. C. Ellinghaus deals with the imagery of Roman legionaries and use the finds to shed light on the social history of Roman soldiers. With the glass vessels and glass beads from the three Lippe encampments, B. Tremmel presents one of the most important glass complexes of the early roman imperial period. M. Müller concludes with a helmet find and gives in a further contribution an overview of the range of forms of Roman bronze vessels from Oberaden based on two new finds.
