<h2>Conquest: The Rivers and Roads of Flavian Scotland</h2><h3>a talk by Dr. Andrew Tibbs</h3><h3>24th November 2022</h3>

<p><strong>Scotland is one of the few areas of the ancient world which was never completely occupied by the Roman army, and despite numerous attempts, never fully assimilated into the Empire. Arguably, it was during the 1st century that the Imperial Army made the most successful inroads into the lands beyond the province of Britannia, reaching as far as the shores of the Moray Firth in the north. However, the full length and extent of Roman occupation in this period remains debated by scholars. 
</strong></p><p><strong>
</strong></p><p><strong>Based on the findings of his latest research, Dr Andrew Tibbs (Durham University) will explore the role and function of roads and waterways in 1st century Scotland, how they were used by Roman military and what we really know about these today.
</strong></p><p><strong>This presentation will take place via Zoom, and will be followed by a Q&A session.  Attendees will receive a link by email after registration, and on the day of the talk. The meeting room will open to the public at 7:15pm with the talk starting at 7:30pm.</strong></p>
