Researchers Uncover Ancient Carrot Amphoras Fragments in Roman Frontier Camp Archaeologists excavating the former Roman auxiliary camp of Augustianis/Traismauer at the Stollhofen vicus on the Danube frontier in Lower Austria have made a groundbreaking discovery. A comprehensive excavation is underway to uncover and analyze remnants of two partially preserved carrot amphoras. Found in the military outpost, these ancient artifacts offer valuable insights into the daily lives of Roman soldiers stationed along the limes, the so-called Roman Danube border. Further study is necessary to fully understand the significance of these finds and their relevance to the broader history of the region. The excavations at Stollhofen are an ongoing process, with a focus on uncovering and documenting as much information as possible about the site.
