[13] At Croy Hill, the ditch in front of the rampart was not excavated by the Romans.
It is likely that hard basalt and dolerite of the hill was virtually impossible to shape with Roman tools.
[28][29] These items are now kept in the Hunterian Museum,[30] Glasgow along with others like the altar found at Castlecary.
[31] A gravestone was discovered; it shows a soldier with other men, perhaps his sons, at his side.
The larger Roman forts of which this was not one had a nominal cohort of 1000 men[35] but probably sheltered women and children as well although the troops were not allowed to marry.
