Abstracts

EN

The three excavation campaigns covered in this interim report were concentrated on the front and rear parts of the legionary fortress at Novae, where in the last years an intensive destruction activity of local treasure hunters took place. Some of the robber pits left by this clandestine excavation were replaced by a series of regular rescue trenches in order to record the exposed architectural remains. New information on the street-grid and plan of the legionary buildings in the praetentura and retentura of the fortress has been obtained.
