I am English but my parents took us off to the antipodes, after 60 years my (Australian) wife and I went back to see what my family had left all those years ago. One of my main objectives was to visit Hadrian's wall. We were not disappointed, just like the video, we were amazed at the sheer scale of the forts, something I knew nothing about when I was a kid. The one we went to housed 800 men, and the all the forts were quite close together.. The main road sort of follows the wall from coast to coast, and it took us quite a while to travel it by car. Just imagine having to 'build' your way across? My mate here in NZ is from Scotland, and we have endless fun discussing what we, and they, did all that time ago. The bottom line is at least after the Romans left we had viniculture, could walk the streets at night in safety, and indeed had decent streets to walk on at last. . Sewerage systems, baths, Latin, and of course the right of men to have a baby.

That is just what I thought when I visited Stonehenge recently, twice the age of Hadrian's wall, and hard to believe it was built 2000 years before Christ., considering how seemingly barbaric some civilizations were in the past, (and still are in some parts). Plundering the stones etc must have been a full time job, they are big! and we are lucky they are still some there at Stonehenge after 4000 years of English winters, endless invasions, and local plundering. When I was a kid, and before we emigrated to Ausi in the 1960's, Stonehenge was still an unknown, I carved my name on one, as it was not 'protected' in those days. Sacrilege I know, but the day before we visited it this year somebody painted it orange. Luckily it was all back to normal the next day after the water blasters got into it. After all, 10000 people visit it on a good day, and over 15000 later that week on the summer solstice before dawn. When I was a kid you would be lucky to get 10 in a day, and by the way, I found out dawn is VERY early at that time of year!

W. H. Auden got it right - Roman Wall Blues Over the heather the wet wind blows, I've lice in my tunic and a cold in my nose. The rain comes pattering out of the sky, I'm a Wall soldier, I don't know why. The mist creeps over the hard grey stone, My girl's in Tungria; I sleep alone. Aulus goes hanging around her place, I don't like his manners, I don't like his face. Piso's a Christian, he worships a fish; There'd be no kissing if he had his wish. She gave me a ring but I diced it away; I want my girl and I want my pay. When I'm a veteran with only one eye I shall do nothing but look at the sky.

Arbeia is not actually part of the wall. It was the supply depot for the wall located in modern day South Shields on the south side of the river mouth. The most easterly fort was Segadunum found in Wallsend. On the North bank of the Tyne. Arbeia is well worth a visit - it not only has a reconstruction of the western gatehouse but it has reconstructions of a barrack block and the commandant’s house. I have been many times.

@@scoobyview They literally discuss it in this video that they purposefully split up ethnic groups and put them into other areas to prevent rebellion and demoralise them. The Roman empire would have worked regardless. You're essentially saying that it's a good thing, the diversity of the empire, when they did it for power and control. Trying to equate that to modern day diversity, saying it's a good thing, is laughable and shows a lack of understanding of the Roman empire. With or without diversity, the empire would have worked, and it's diversity was a BAD thing. It relied on slavery, on forcing groups apart, on colonialism, on genocide, on war and torture and death. The modern western world now relies on diversity in a similar way. To break up ethnic and cultural groups. Postering that it's only a good thing, and that any detraction is just right wing hokey-pokey, tells me you need to read your history books again, and then again. Obviously it's not all doom and gloom, but the argument is far, far more nuanced. The Roman empire was BAD for non Roman culture and ethnic groups, but it was good, in a base way, for the individual. Once you had the Christianisation of Rome, interestingly, so-called pillars of morality, you see all this played out at an even more perverse, grander scale. So whenever the Christian right applaud Rome as being great, I can't help but laugh.

Instead, they supplied the Roman army with special troops, mostly troops that were specialized in fighting in estuarine conditions. Even the personal bodyguards of the emperor were Batavians at some point.

You needed to show some artists' impressions of how the wall looked at its full height, in its heyday, rather than just the gatehouse at Arbeia. There are plenty of them. And it needed to be done near the start of the video, to impress the uninitiated, particularly children, who might see you standing next to the present day remains and think 'What's all the fuss about ? It doesn't look so imposing to me ! How did that keep the barbarians at bay for 450 years ?' Also, there are the magnificent views of the wall as it passes the crags between Twice Brewed and (ex 😢) Sycamore Gap, to show how the Whin Sill escarpment added to the wall's height, which you should have included earlier rather than just one brief shot at the end. Even Ant & Dec did a better job of depicting the lives of the garrisons and local farmers living along the wall, how it acted as a porous control point, illustrated by the fascinating letters written on preserved wax tablets, a unique glimpse of 'history from below' not found in other parts of the Roman Empire. A bit lazy again, Dan. 😢

It could be the missing link that Anglo Saxons had already started establishing themselves at the end of the Roman occupation when they converted these warehouses into halls. They were mercenaries/Roman soldiers already so it could be why Northumbria started off as one of the stronger provinces during the early AS period? They were already established/adapting to a degree by the end of the official withdrawal of the Romans compared to over provinces which had to adapt? Extremely interesting.

For some years I was privileged to fish for trout from a boat on Crag Loch (the only 'loch'/lake in England); it is always the first drone photo when the Wall is shown; it is called 'crag' because to the south (Roman) side of the lake is a near-vertical cliff of maybe 300 feet in height; to attack the wall a barbarian from the North would have had to- swim the freezing cold loch (it's quite deep) and climb the cliff and THEN attack the Romans. Seems an unlikely battle plan; however even at that the legions built their wall atop the crag I used to imagine the boredom of a soldier gazing northwards from up there, knowing that if he lived to be a hundred he would never see action in that place. I wonder if they stole down and fished for the trout ?

Classical Antiquity Imperial Han China had its Great Wall, constructed of stamped earthen walls while Classical World Britannia had its Hadrian's Wall of stone blocks. Both served the same purpose, delineating the frontier of the barbarian tribespeople to the north from the civilized Roman world to the south. The Han Chinese Great Wall of tall, stamped earthen walls was more purpose-built to keep out northern Asian tribal horsemen raiders. The Roman Hadrian's Wall was not intended to be a fighting wall, although it could certainly do that. It's main purpose was frontier control of movement of persons and trade across the border. Rome depended upon reliable intelligence to ascertain imminent threats that the wall garrisons could deal with outside the wall. Nor did the Romans consider the wall the definitive border. Rome saw no limit nor prohibition from regulating the lands just due north of the wall if and when necessary. To the Imperial Han Chinese, barbarian lands began outside the wall. Both succeeded for a long time at great expense in manpower, maintenance costs, and logistics resupply. And in the deep span of history both would ultimately fail for the same reasons. Traces and artifacts of both walls exist today, a testimony to the political ambitions of powerful, great men, the ingenuity of ancient engineers, the sweat and toil of soldiers and conscripted citizens - corvee labor - to create such magnificent grand schemes of human engineering attesting to their respective high levels of civilization. But unlike the Great Pyramids of Egypt, could not stand the test of time.

The Romans left UK because of far more challenging problems on the 'eastern' front of Europe etc, they had to try and consolidate their empire.
