EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Further Discoveries of Roman Remains at Castlecary, Dumbarton" takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient Roman Empire. Created by Henry Charles Seppings Wright in 1902, this print showcases the remarkable archaeological findings at Castlecary. The image depicts a scene of excavation and exploration as archaeologists uncover remnants of Roman civilization. The intricate details captured in this lithograph allow us to marvel at the craftsmanship of Roman masonry and the grandeur of their architecture. We can see a main sewer running through the site, showcasing the advanced engineering skills employed by these ancient builders. The remains include walls, drains, furnaces, and even a net-shaped road that once connected different parts of this Roman camp. The south-east rampart stands tall against time's passage while offering glimpses into an era long gone. As we delve deeper into this visual narrative, our eyes are drawn towards a praetorium – an administrative building used by high-ranking officials during Roman times – standing proudly amidst its surroundings. A sallyport gate provides access to and from the camp while adding an air of mystery to these historical ruins. This engraving not only serves as a testament to Scotland's rich history but also ignites our curiosity about life within these ancient walls centuries ago. It reminds us that beneath our modern landscapes lie hidden stories waiting to be discovered and shared with future generations.
