Hadrian’s Wall
122–410 CE
Hadrian’s Wall was begun after Hadrian visited Britain in AD 122. It included forts, milecastles, turrets, roads and associated settlements across the northern frontier.
The wall regulated movement, taxation, trade, surveillance and military response rather than simply sealing the province from peoples to the north.
The opening Empire novels place Marcus Valerius Aquila among auxiliary troops on and beyond the wall, making the frontier a setting for patrols, raids, command politics and concealed identity.
