EDITORS COMMENTS
This monumental inscription, hailing from the Moresby Roman fort in Cumbria, England, dates back to the second century AD and bears testament to the reign of Emperor Hadrian, who ruled the Roman Empire from 128 to 138 AD. The inscription, carved into stone, identifies Hadrian as Caesar Trajan Hadrian Augustus, the "father of the country," and acknowledges the presence of the Twentieth Legion Valeria Victrix in the region. The Latin script, with its clear and deliberate letters, speaks of a time when the Roman Empire extended its reach to the very shores of Britain. The broken edges of the inscription serve as a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the enduring legacy of the Roman Empire in Europe. Today, this significant piece of ancient history can be found in the hallowed halls of the British Museum in London, England, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United Kingdom.
