In this live history documentary we join Roman soldiers as they take up their watch along the fortified border of the Rhine frontier. We begin with a brief introduction to the Roman Limes which was composed of a network of forts, walls, and outposts. These allowed the Roman army to effectively control hundreds of miles with just a few men. But the key to this system was information with which to properly react to events along the frontier. Thus a vast series of small forts and watchtowers was established. This episode focuses on what the experience of ancient daily life in a Roman fort on the Germanic Limes.

Stay tuned for more episodes of Live History which will cover other aspects of daily life in the past though reenactment footage and on location aerial shots.
