Roman Eboracum, 300

Eboracum in 300 is a large legionary fortress and the provincial capital in northern Britannia, its stone walls and interval towers enclosing a permanent garrison while a flourishing colonia spreads on the river slopes across the Ouse. The walk follows river wharves, military ramparts and the colonia's streets to view the principia façade, the Multangular Tower, temples to Mithras and Serapis, workshops and the busy riverside trade.

34 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 12 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of York as it stood in AD 300 (“Eboracum”).
