The National Roman Legion Museum ((ウェールズ語:Amgueddfa Lleng Rufeinig Cymru)) is a museum in Caerleon, near Newport, south-east Wales. It is one of three Roman sites in Caerleon, along with the Baths museum and the open-air ruins of the amphitheatre and barracks. It is part of the wider network of Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales. == Background and history == Roman Wales was the farthest point west that the Roman Empire in Roman Britain extended to, and as a defence point the fortress at Isca Augusta, now Caerleon, built in 75 AD, was one of only three permanent Roman Legionary fortresses in Roman Britain. It was occupied and operational for just over 200 years. The National Roman Legion Museum lies inside what remains of the fortress, and contains many artefacts from the period of Isca Augusta of Legio II Augusta from Roman currency to uniforms. A short walk from the National Roman Legion Museum is the remains of Isca Augusta: * Part of the military bath house in the Roman Baths Museum * The most complete Roman amphitheatre in Britain * Sections of the fortress walls * The only remains of a Roman legionary barracks on view anywhere in Europe at Prysg Field ''See: main articles Isca Augusta and Caerleon''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Roman Legion Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
