The defenses of the Roman legionary fortress at Novae (Lower Moesia) and coin finds from the “Per lineam munitionum” project: numismatic and archaeological interpretation

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the results of archaeological work carried out between 2005–2016, within the framework of a postexcavation project, “Per lineam munitionum”, on the fortification system of the Roman legionary fortress and the late Roman and early Byzantine town of Novae. The research concentrated generally on completing and recording old trenches, as well as recording remains of the original building substance, stratigraphy and other archaeological remains using modern technologies and precise geodetic equipment. The archaeological data and stratigraphical observations were compared with the numismatic findings in an effort to improve the final interpretation and the reconstruction of the main construction phases.
