[1700591.ged]
After the massive battle of Mons Graupius in 80-84, where Agricola
marched with 30000 romans and killed, according to tacitus, 10000
caledonians, but then retreated, the romans seemed to have left northern
caledonia alone. During the time of fedlimid,
the Romans are intent on keeping Briton, building the Hadrian wall in
122, and the Antonine wall in 142, which will be garrisoned for the next
20 yrs. Thus Caledonia and the Picts were prevented (saved) from being
romanized like the britains and
angles.
