Glevum, Archaeological site in Gloucester, England
The Roman settlement of Glevum contains preserved sections of ancient walls, streets, and building foundations across the modern city center of Gloucester.
During the first century, Romans established Glevum as a military fortress to control the region and protect trade routes along the River Severn.
Archaeological excavations at Glevum revealed numerous artifacts including Roman coins, pottery, and metalwork that demonstrate the daily activities of Roman citizens.
Visitors can explore the Roman remains through marked trails connecting different sections of the ancient settlement throughout present-day Gloucester city center.
Ground-penetrating radar surveys identified the locations of a Roman amphitheater and public baths beneath the streets of modern Gloucester.
