Summary[edit]

Description

During the 2007 / 2008 excavation, a harbour was discovered in the south-eastern part of the site of Forum Hadriani. The harbour was used amongst others for transport of heavy building material, as can be concluded from the part of a large pillar that was found in the harbour. This type of heavy transport was one of the tasks of the Lower Rhine navy, the Classis Germanica Pia Fidelis. The location close to the limes, the heavy construction of the quay-wall and the large amount of C.G.P.F brick stamps produced for use by this navy found in Forum Hadriani all suggest that the harbour was in fact a military installation.
