1:48Now PlayingWhen Hadrian became emperor in 117 A.D., he stopped expansion and built Hadrian’s Wall—relocating garrisons to new stone forts. But when Antoninus Pius took power, he pushed further north into Scotland and built the Antonine Wall in 142 A.D., leaving forts like Vindolanda completely abandoned! The Scottish occupation didn't last long, and by 160 A.D., Rome retreated back to Hadrian's Wall. #RomanEmpire #HadriansWall #AntonineWall #HistoryShorts #Vindolanda #RomanBritain #MilitaryHistory #AncientHistory
