Abstracts

The coin-hoards were rarely found in the sites of destructions related to the Marcomannic Wars. Destruction-levels in the forts and towns of the Danubian provinces indicate the intensity of barbarian incursions in AD. 170. In Raetia and Noricum there were already earlier burnt layers recorded. The events of the Marcomannic Wars were indicated by destruction-levels dated by coins and samian ware. This pottery helps us to recognise the hints of the wars in forts, vici of auxiliary units, towns and settlements during the reign of Marcus Aurelius. On the basis of the finds we can obtain conclusions concerning barbarian incursions in AD 170 in Noricum and Upper Pannonia and invasion of Sarmatians in AD 178 in Lower Pannonia. The war caused a great damage in the provinces, which can be observed also by archaeological finds.
