Calleva Outpost

The Calleva Outpost was an Anglo-Saxon outpost in the northeast of Hampshire, England. It was once the capital of the Atrebates tribe and later a former Roman town. While a large part of the ruins remained untouched, the Saxons made camp in the town's amphitheater, while archers were stationed on top of the buildings nearby.

History

In the 870s, the outpost was visited by the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir, who explored the surrounding ruins. In one of the buildings, Eivor came across several skeletons, belonging to several members of the Legio IX Hispana who had remained behind in Great Britain follow the Roman exodus in the early 5th century, a note left behind describing their names and proclamation. Eivor also recovered a Roman artifact near the skeletons.[1]

Later on, Eivor proceeded inwards and eliminated the Saxons in the amphitheater, looting a tungsten ingot from a Banneret's body, as well as a Drekar Shield from an underground chamber chest.[2]
