Actually, this indicates the Romans got further north than has sometimes been believed.

Just north of Frankfurt is a reconstructed Roman border fort, Saalburg along with a section of the Limes, or fence of the Roman border. It sits on the east side of the Rhine. Everything to the west was a part of the Roman Empire. Mainz, also close to Frankfurt was a major Roman city and headquarters of a Roman legion.
It would come as a big surprise to residents of this region that anyone thought that the Roman Empire never came this far north.
Rahm Emanueal’s ancestors used to cut off horses’ heads and put in political opponents beds. Perhaps they plated one?
