Isca Dumnoniorum

Isca Dumnoniorum was a Roman fort and settlement located in what is now Exeter, England. Established around AD 55, it served as a base for Roman military operations in the region and later became a civilian town. The name reflects its connection to the Dumnonii tribe, who lived in the area. The site featured typical Roman structures, including bathhouses and an amphitheater. Today, remnants of Isca, such as walls and artifacts, provide valuable insights into Roman life and governance in Britain, illustrating the blend of Roman and local culture during the occupation.
