Hadrian appointed <a href="/wiki/Aulus_Platorius_Nepos" title="Aulus Platorius Nepos">Aulus Platorius Nepos</a> as governor to undertake this work who brought the <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Legio_VI_Victrix" title="Legio VI Victrix">Legio VI Victrix</a></i></span></i> legion with him from <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Germania_Inferior" title="Germania Inferior">Germania Inferior</a></i></span></i>. This replaced the famous <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Legio_IX_Hispana" title="Legio IX Hispana">Legio IX Hispana</a></i></span></i>, whose disappearance has been much discussed. Archaeology indicates considerable political instability in Scotland during the first half of the 2nd century, and the shifting frontier at this time should be seen in this context. </p><p>In the reign of <a href="/wiki/Antoninus_Pius" title="Antoninus Pius">Antoninus Pius</a> (138–161) the Hadrianic border was briefly extended north to the Forth–Clyde isthmus, where the <a href="/wiki/Antonine_Wall" title="Antonine Wall">Antonine Wall</a> was built around 142 following the military reoccupation of the Scottish lowlands by a new governor, <a href="/wiki/Quintus_Lollius_Urbicus" title="Quintus Lollius Urbicus">Quintus Lollius Urbicus</a>. </p><p>The first Antonine occupation of Scotland ended as a result of a further crisis in 155–157, when the <a href="/wiki/Brigantes" title="Brigantes">Brigantes</a> revolted. With limited options to despatch reinforcements, the Romans moved their troops south, and this rising was suppressed by Governor <a href="/wiki/Gnaeus_Julius_Verus" title="Gnaeus Julius Verus">Gnaeus Julius Verus</a>. Within a year the Antonine Wall was recaptured, but by 163 or 164 it was abandoned. The second occupation was probably connected with Antoninus's undertakings to protect the <a href="/wiki/Votadini" title="Votadini">Votadini</a> or his pride in enlarging the empire, since the retreat to the Hadrianic frontier occurred not long after his death when a more objective strategic assessment of the benefits of the Antonine Wall could be made. The Romans did not entirely withdraw from Scotland at this time: the large fort at Newstead was maintained along with seven smaller outposts until at least 180. </p><p>During the twenty-year period following the reversion of the frontier to Hadrian's Wall in 163/4, Rome was concerned with continental issues, primarily <a href="/wiki/Marcomannic_Wars" title="Marcomannic Wars">problems in the Danubian provinces</a>. Increasing numbers of <a href="/wiki/Hoard" title="Hoard">hoards</a> of buried coins in Britain at this time indicate that peace was not entirely achieved. Sufficient Roman silver has been found in Scotland to suggest more than ordinary trade, and it is likely that the Romans were reinforcing treaty agreements by paying tribute to their implacable enemies, the <a href="/wiki/Picts" title="Picts">Picts</a>. </p><p>In 175, a large force of <a href="/wiki/Sarmatians" title="Sarmatians">Sarmatian</a> cavalry, consisting of 5,500 men, arrived in Britannia, probably to reinforce troops fighting unrecorded uprisings. In 180, Hadrian's Wall was breached by the Picts and the commanding officer or governor was killed there in what <a href="/wiki/Cassius_Dio" title="Cassius Dio">Cassius Dio</a> described as the most serious war of the reign of <a href="/wiki/Commodus" title="Commodus">Commodus</a>. <a href="/wiki/Ulpius_Marcellus" title="Ulpius Marcellus">Ulpius Marcellus</a> was sent as replacement governor and by 184 he had won a new peace, only to be faced with a mutiny from his own troops. Unhappy with Marcellus's strictness, they tried to elect a legate named <a href="/wiki/Caerellius_Priscus" title="Caerellius Priscus">Priscus</a> as usurper governor; he refused, but Marcellus was lucky to leave the province alive. The Roman army in Britannia continued its insubordination: they sent a delegation of 1,500 to Rome to demand the execution of <a href="/wiki/Tigidius_Perennis" class="mw-redirect" title="Tigidius Perennis">Tigidius Perennis</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Praetorian_prefect" title="Praetorian prefect">Praetorian prefect</a> who they felt had earlier wronged them by posting lowly <a href="/wiki/Equites" title="Equites">equites</a> to legate ranks in Britannia. Commodus met the party outside Rome and agreed to have Perennis killed, but this only made them feel more secure in their mutiny. </p><p>The future emperor <a href="/wiki/Pertinax" title="Pertinax">Pertinax</a> (lived 126–193) was sent to Britannia to quell the mutiny and was initially successful in regaining control, but a riot broke out among the troops. Pertinax was attacked and left for dead, and asked to be recalled to Rome, where he briefly succeeded <a href="/wiki/Commodus" title="Commodus">Commodus</a> as emperor in 192. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="3rd_century">3rd century</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roman_Britain&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: 3rd century"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The death of Commodus put into motion a series of events which eventually led to civil war. Following the short reign of Pertinax, several rivals for the emperorship emerged, including <a href="/wiki/Septimius_Severus" title="Septimius Severus">Septimius Severus</a> and <a href="/wiki/Clodius_Albinus" title="Clodius Albinus">Clodius Albinus</a>. The latter was the new governor of Britannia, and had seemingly won the natives over after their earlier rebellions; he also controlled three legions, making him a potentially significant claimant. His sometime rival Severus promised him the title of <a href="/wiki/Caesar_(title)" title="Caesar (title)">Caesar</a> in return for Albinus's support against <a href="/wiki/Pescennius_Niger" title="Pescennius Niger">Pescennius Niger</a> in the east. Once Niger was neutralised, Severus turned on his ally in Britannia; it is likely that Albinus saw he would be the next target and was already preparing for war. </p><p>Albinus crossed to <a href="/wiki/Gaul" title="Gaul">Gaul</a> in 195, where the provinces were also sympathetic to him, and set up at <a href="/wiki/Lugdunum" title="Lugdunum">Lugdunum</a>. Severus arrived in February 196, and the ensuing battle was decisive. Albinus came close to victory, but Severus's reinforcements won the day, and the British governor committed suicide. Severus soon purged Albinus's sympathisers and perhaps confiscated large tracts of land in Britain as punishment. Albinus had demonstrated the major problem posed by Roman Britain. In order to maintain security, the province required the presence of three legions, but command of these forces provided an ideal power base for ambitious rivals. Deploying those legions elsewhere would strip the island of its garrison, leaving the province defenceless against uprisings by the native Celtic tribes and against invasion by the <a href="/wiki/Picts" title="Picts">Picts</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gaels" title="Gaels">Scots</a>. </p><p>The traditional view is that northern Britain descended into anarchy during Albinus's absence. Cassius Dio records that the new Governor, <a href="/wiki/Virius_Lupus" title="Virius Lupus">Virius Lupus</a>, was obliged to buy peace from a fractious northern tribe known as the <a href="/wiki/Maeatae" title="Maeatae">Maeatae</a>. The succession of militarily distinguished governors who were subsequently appointed suggests that enemies of Rome were posing a difficult challenge, and <a href="/wiki/Lucius_Alfenus_Senecio" title="Lucius Alfenus Senecio">Lucius Alfenus Senecio</a>'s report to Rome in 207 describes barbarians "rebelling, over-running the land, taking loot and creating destruction". In order to rebel, of course, one must be a subject – the Maeatae clearly did not consider themselves such. Senecio requested either reinforcements or an Imperial expedition, and Severus chose the latter, despite being 62 years old. Archaeological evidence shows that Senecio had been rebuilding the defences of Hadrian's Wall and the forts beyond it, and Severus's arrival in Britain prompted the enemy tribes to sue for peace immediately. The emperor had not come all that way to leave without a victory, and it is likely that he wished to provide his teenage sons <a href="/wiki/Caracalla" title="Caracalla">Caracalla</a> and <a href="/wiki/Publius_Septimius_Geta" class="mw-redirect" title="Publius Septimius Geta">Geta</a> with first-hand experience of controlling a hostile barbarian land. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg/220px-Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="235" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg/330px-Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg/440px-Roman.Britain.Severan.Campaigns.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1810" data-file-height="1931" /></a><figcaption>Northern campaigns, 208–211</figcaption></figure> <p>An <a href="/wiki/Roman_invasion_of_Caledonia_208%E2%80%93210" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman invasion of Caledonia 208–210">invasion of Caledonia</a> led by Severus and probably numbering around 20,000 troops moved north in 208 or 209, crossing the Wall and passing through eastern Scotland on a route similar to that used by Agricola. Harried by punishing guerrilla raids by the northern tribes and slowed by an unforgiving terrain, Severus was unable to meet the Caledonians on a battlefield. The emperor's forces pushed north as far as the <a href="/wiki/River_Tay" title="River Tay">River Tay</a>, but little appears to have been achieved by the invasion, as peace treaties were signed with the Caledonians. By 210 Severus had returned to York, and the frontier had once again become Hadrian's Wall. He assumed the title <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">Britannicus</i></span></i> but the title meant little with regard to the unconquered north, which clearly remained outside the authority of the Empire. Almost immediately, another northern tribe, the Maeatae, went to war. Caracalla left with a <a href="/wiki/Punitive_expedition" title="Punitive expedition">punitive expedition</a>, but by the following year his ailing father had died and he and his brother left the province to press their claim to the throne. </p><p>As one of his last acts, Severus tried to solve the problem of powerful and rebellious governors in Britain by dividing the province into <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Britannia_Superior" title="Britannia Superior">Britannia Superior</a></i></span></i> and <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la"><a href="/wiki/Britannia_Inferior" title="Britannia Inferior">Britannia Inferior</a></i></span></i>. This kept the potential for rebellion in check for almost a century. Historical sources provide little information on the following decades, a period known as the Long Peace. Even so, the number of buried hoards found from this period rises, suggesting continuing unrest. A string of forts were built along the coast of southern Britain to control piracy; and over the following hundred years they increased in number, becoming the <a href="/wiki/Saxon_Shore" title="Saxon Shore">Saxon Shore Forts</a>. </p><p>During the middle of the 3rd century, the Roman Empire was convulsed by barbarian invasions, rebellions and new imperial pretenders. Britannia apparently avoided these troubles, but increasing <a href="/wiki/Inflation" title="Inflation">inflation</a> had its economic effect. In 259 a so-called <a href="/wiki/Gallic_Empire" title="Gallic Empire">Gallic Empire</a> was established when <a href="/wiki/Postumus" title="Postumus">Postumus</a> rebelled against <a href="/wiki/Gallienus" title="Gallienus">Gallienus</a>. Britannia was part of this until 274 when <a href="/wiki/Aurelian" title="Aurelian">Aurelian</a> reunited the empire. </p><p>Around the year 280, a half-<a href="/wiki/Romano-Britons" class="mw-redirect" title="Romano-Britons">British</a> officer named <a href="/wiki/Bonosus_(usurper)" title="Bonosus (usurper)">Bonosus</a> was in command of the Roman's <a href="/wiki/Classis_Germanica" title="Classis Germanica">Rhenish fleet</a> when the <a href="/wiki/Germania" title="Germania">Germans</a> managed to burn it at anchor.

Soon afterwards, an unnamed <a href="/wiki/Governors_of_Roman_Britain" class="mw-redirect" title="Governors of Roman Britain">governor</a> of one of the British provinces also attempted an uprising. Probus put it down by sending irregular troops of <a href="/wiki/Vandals" title="Vandals">Vandals</a> and <a href="/wiki/Burgundians" title="Burgundians">Burgundians</a> across the Channel. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Carausian_Revolt" class="mw-redirect" title="Carausian Revolt">Carausian Revolt</a> led to a short-lived <a href="/wiki/Britannic_Empire" class="mw-redirect" title="Britannic Empire">Britannic Empire</a> from 286 to 296. <a href="/wiki/Carausius" title="Carausius">Carausius</a> was a <a href="/wiki/Menapii" title="Menapii">Menapian</a> <a href="/wiki/Roman_navy" title="Roman navy">naval</a> commander of the <a href="/wiki/Classis_Britannica" title="Classis Britannica">Britannic fleet</a>; he revolted upon learning of a death sentence ordered by the emperor <a href="/wiki/Maximian" title="Maximian">Maximian</a> on charges of having abetted <a href="/wiki/Franks" title="Franks">Frankish</a> and <a href="/wiki/Saxon_people" class="mw-redirect" title="Saxon people">Saxon</a> <a href="/wiki/Roman_piracy" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman piracy">pirates</a> and having embezzled recovered treasure. He consolidated control over all the provinces of Britain and some of northern Gaul while Maximian dealt with other uprisings. An invasion in 288 failed to unseat him and an uneasy peace ensued, with Carausius issuing coins and inviting official recognition. In 293, the <a href="/wiki/Caesar_(title)" title="Caesar (title)">junior emperor</a> <a href="/wiki/Constantius_Chlorus" title="Constantius Chlorus">Constantius Chlorus</a> launched a second offensive, besieging the rebel port of <a href="/wiki/Gesoriacum" class="mw-redirect" title="Gesoriacum">Gesoriacum</a> (<a href="/wiki/Boulogne-sur-Mer" title="Boulogne-sur-Mer">Boulogne-sur-Mer</a>) by land and sea.

Little is known of his campaigns with scant archaeological evidence, but fragmentary historical sources suggest he reached the far north of Britain and won a major battle in early summer before returning south. His son Constantine (later <a href="/wiki/Constantine_the_Great" title="Constantine the Great">Constantine the Great</a>) spent a year in northern Britain at his father's side, campaigning against the <a href="/wiki/Picts" title="Picts">Picts</a> beyond <a href="/wiki/Hadrian%27s_Wall" title="Hadrian's Wall">Hadrian's Wall</a> in the summer and autumn.<sup id="cite_ref-63" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Constantius died in <a href="/wiki/York" title="York">York</a> in July 306 with his son at his side.

A series of forts had been built, starting around 280, to defend the coasts, but these preparations were not enough when, in 367, a general assault of Saxons, <a href="/wiki/Picts" title="Picts">Picts</a>, Scoti and <a href="/wiki/Attacotti" title="Attacotti">Attacotti</a>, combined with apparent dissension in the garrison on Hadrian's Wall, left Roman Britain prostrate.

By the end of the year Hadrian's Wall was retaken and order returned. Considerable reorganization was undertaken in Britain, including the creation of a new province named Valentia, probably to better address the state of the far north. A new <a href="/wiki/Dux_Britanniarum" title="Dux Britanniarum">Dux Britanniarum</a> was appointed, Dulcitius, with Civilis to head a new civilian administration. </p><p>Another imperial usurper, <a href="/wiki/Magnus_Maximus" title="Magnus Maximus">Magnus Maximus</a>, raised the standard of revolt at <a href="/wiki/Segontium" title="Segontium">Segontium</a> (<a href="/wiki/Caernarfon" title="Caernarfon">Caernarfon</a>) in north Wales in 383, and crossed the <a href="/wiki/English_Channel" title="English Channel">English Channel</a>.

His continental exploits required troops from Britain, and it appears that forts at Chester and elsewhere were abandoned in this period, triggering raids and settlement in north Wales by the Irish. His rule was ended in 388, but not all the British troops may have returned: the Empire's military resources were stretched to the limit along the Rhine and Danube. Around 396 there were more barbarian incursions into Britain. <a href="/wiki/Stilicho" title="Stilicho">Stilicho</a> led a punitive expedition.

Many suffered some decay before being abandoned in the 5th century; the story of <a href="/wiki/Saint_Patrick" title="Saint Patrick">Saint Patrick</a> indicates that villas were still occupied until at least 430.

Coinage circulation increased during the 390s, but never attained the levels of earlier decades. Copper coins are very rare after 402, though minted silver and gold coins from hoards indicate they were still present in the province even if they were not being spent. By 407 there were very few new Roman coins going into circulation, and by 430 it is likely that coinage as a medium of exchange had been abandoned. Mass-produced wheel thrown pottery ended at approximately the same time; the rich continued to use metal and glass vessels, while the poor made do with humble "grey ware" or resorted to leather or wooden containers. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sub-Roman_Britain">Sub-Roman Britain</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roman_Britain&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Sub-Roman Britain"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Sub-Roman_Britain" title="Sub-Roman Britain">Sub-Roman Britain</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg/220px-End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="274" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg/330px-End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b6/End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg/440px-End.of.Roman.rule.in.Britain.383.410.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2582" data-file-height="3220" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/End_of_Roman_rule_in_Britain" title="End of Roman rule in Britain">End of Roman rule in Britain</a>, 383–410</figcaption></figure> <p>Towards the end of the 4th century Roman rule in Britain came under increasing pressure from <a href="/wiki/Barbarian" title="Barbarian">barbarian</a> attacks.

The towns suffered attrition in the later 4th century, when public building ceased and some were abandoned to private use. Place names survived the deurbanised Sub-Roman and early Anglo-Saxon periods, and historiography has been at pains to signal the expected survivals, but archaeology shows that a bare handful of Roman towns were continuously occupied. According to S.T. Loseby, the very idea of a town as a centre of power and administration was reintroduced to England by the Roman Christianising mission to Canterbury, and its urban revival was delayed to the 10th century.<sup id="cite_ref-Loseby326_93-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Loseby326-93"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>89<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Roman towns can
