Bingium, Archaeological site in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Bingium is the Latin name of present-day Bingen am Rhein. No remains of the Roman fort or civilian settlement (vicus) are visible above ground; the site is known through finds such as the 1859/60 necropolis at Bingerbrück, the tombstone of Annaius Daverzus showing Roman weapons and clothing, and the 1983 discovery of oak piles from AD 77 under the Nahe, remains of a Roman bridge.

Drusus founded a fort at the Nahe mouth in the first decade BC, and a civilian vicus grew around it. After Germanic raids in 359, Emperor Julian had the settlement walled; Ausonius mentions the walls in 370. The Nahe bridge's oak piles were dated dendrochronologically to 77, under Vespasian.

The name Bingium probably comes from a Celtic root and passed from Drusus's fort to the civilian settlement; Tacitus mentions it in his Historiae. Latin sources also call it Bingio, Bingum, Vingio and Vingo. In the crypt of St. Martin, excavators found a fragment of a Roman altar, which led to the theory that a temple once stood on the site of the later church.

No Roman structures survive above ground at Bingium; the fort and vicus are known through finds and necropolises. Visible traces are the Roman bridge piers of 77 AD under the Drususbrücke between Bingen and Bingerbrück, and the 1859/60 railway construction that exposed graves in Bingerbrück. The stone of the doctor's grave, found in 1924 near Burg Klopp, is in local collections.

The 1859/60 railway construction at Bingerbrück exposed a large Roman necropolis; among its gravestones is that of Annaius Daverzus of the cohors IV Delmatarum, carved with a detailed view of first-century Roman weapons and clothing. In 1924 the so-called doctor's grave was found near Burg Klopp, containing bronze cupping vessels and other medical instruments.
