Recovery of the Roman Mile Marker

2011

Today I walked the Roman Road again and drove up to pickup the Roman Mile Marker. We drove 3km or so up the Roman Road toward Hesban with the front end loader and picked up two pieces of the Roman Mile Marker requested by the DOA. We returned to the Mosque where it will be determined where it will finally be displayed. Work resumed on square 14A1 under the excellent supervision of Scott Stripling. One of our students uncovered a large bronze coin today. Time will tell what denomination it is and if it is readable. It may be Byzantine given its size.
