An ancient Roman amphitheater that may have been one of the last built was discovered during construction of a new boathouse on the Rhine River in Switzerland.

“Possibly last ever built”

Don’t discount democrat run cities.

This is very close to where I live - unfortunately, I think they finished their study and filled it back in, would have been cool to visit.

They obviously do not teach geography anymore. Was probably thinking Switzerland is where Sweden is. lol

About a 7 day walk from Lyon France which was a ‘uge Roman city.

Maybe the Romans were really, really lazy if that was the “far reaches” of their empire.

I have been to Zurich many times. Kaiseraugst is north and west of Zurich near Basel. If the article is wrong about something basic, what else is suspect? Nonetheless, it sets out an interesting scenario.

Thanks for posting these so often, SunkenCiv.

Definitely written by a historical illiterate:

In 476 C.E., the western part of the empire ended when Rome was sacked by Germanic barbarian king Odoacer.

Ughhh!
