Abstract
The Antonine Wall has been described as 'Rome's last frontier', as it was the Empire's most northern outpost. But the real outpost, about which excavations reveal more information, was the Gask Ridge in Perthshire. Based on research, this title provides an account of the Roman occupation of the north of Scotland.
