The Roman building visible is located on the north side of the excavations, distinguishable by an apse on the west side. This building dates to the 4<sup>th<\/sup> century CE, a hall of some sort, which was built over what seem to have been barracks constructed for the soldiers stationed at the fort in the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> century CE.

Much of the gate and the adjacent wall seems to be heavily reconstructed, including the arch on the northern pedestrian entry (though it was supposedly done so using original materials). The <em>porta praetoria<\/em> had three portals; a large central portal for wheeled traffic and two flanking entrances for pedestrians. The form of the gate remaining today dates to the late 3<sup>rd<\/sup> century CE. Some indistinct structures located outside the walls of the fortress are also visible just to the southeast, in some cases partially obstructing the egress from the southern pedestrian portal, indicating that they probably date to a slightly later period. The gate area is open to the public as a park area, so there are no admission and visiting restrictions. There\u2019s also a nearby informational sign, but solely in Hungarian.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10535\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10535\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10535\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Remains at the intersection of Mikl\u00f3s utcai and K\u00f3rh\u00e1z utcai.\" width=\"620\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0056-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Remains at the intersection of Mikl\u00f3s utcai and K\u00f3rh\u00e1z utcai.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A couple blocks west, at the southwest corner of the intersection of Mikl\u00f3s utcai and K\u00f3rh\u00e1z utcai, are some remains in a fenced off and recessed area behind the apartment building at Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r 4-5. There\u2019s no access to these and they\u2019re only visible from the north side, as the east side is adjacent to a private and gated parking lot. On the north side a niched circular structure is pretty apparently visible. I couldn\u2019t find any real information about what is here, but I would suspect these remains are related to the nearby Thermae Maiores. The circular structure does look similar to some <em>sudatoria<\/em> or <em>laconica<\/em> I\u2019ve seen with other bathing complexes.<\/p>\n<p>Another short walk from here are the main preserved remains of the Thermae Maiores. Walking just to the west of the previous site, there is a stairwell that drops down to an underpass for Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r, and immediately from this stairway, brick structures from the Thermae Maiores can be seen. These baths seem to have originally been constructed in the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> century CE at the intersection of the <em>decumanus maximus<\/em> and <em>cardo maximus<\/em> of the legionary <em>castrum<\/em> of Aquincum. Epigraphic evidence suggests they were rebuilt several times afterward, including one dedication specifically dated to June 30, 268 CE. This specifically identifies these as the large baths of Legio II Adiutrix Pia Fidelis Claudiana and names Clementius Silvius and the <em>praefect<\/em> Aurelius Frontinus as being responsible for this renovation. It also specifies that the baths were restored after a period of disuse and abandonment. The Thermae Maiores appear to have covered an area of about 120 meters by 140 meters.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10536\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Section of the Thermae Maiores visible from the Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r underpass.\" width=\"620\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0061-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10536\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Section of the Thermae Maiores visible from the Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r underpass.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Unfortunately the baths are no longer directly accessible. They were once part of an entranced attraction, but have been \u2018temporarily closed\u2019. This closure has been ongoing for several years and there is seemingly no plan or timeline for reopening them. There is part of a wall visible entering the underpass and walking along to the northwest. At the end of this hall, to the right, the remains continue. Some viewing panels in an open area here do allow some visibility on to the adjacent rooms of the baths, though there is no information regarding what is visible here. The hall continues and can then be taken along the south side of the baths, but nothing is really visible. This is where the entrance is located when the baths area open. This eventually leads up to another stairway back to ground level.<\/p>\n<p>The central area of the excavated part of the baths is difficult to see from the underpass, but it is open at the top, allowing for views down into this area. Unfortunately there are no crosswalks that lead across the streets that would allow viewing into this central area. I did make a dash across the street from the west, as this street is one-way (southbound) and there is a pretty good view up the road to look for a break in traffic (at least on the way over, on the way back it\u2019s a little more difficult because of a curve in the road) to get across. From this spot, though, it is possible to see much more of the baths. There is also a stairwell here that would go down into the subterranean area that is no longer in use, but seems to be a sleeping place for transients, so be aware of that. Some bits of reconstructed hypocaust systems and some tile flooring can be seen in this central area, but it\u2019s hard to make out any distinctive room layout. The large room with the <em>labrum<\/em> could conceivably be a <em>frigidarium<\/em> or <em>apodyterium<\/em>. Unfortunately there is pretty much no information for the baths on-site, presumably because this was intended to be an entranced area and the information panels are inside.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10537\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10537\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Section of the Thermae Maiores with heated areas visible from the above ground of Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r.\" width=\"620\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0070-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Section of the Thermae Maiores with heated areas visible from the above ground of Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Back above ground, just to the west of the Thermae Maiores, right outside the western exit from the underpass is a row of reconstructed columns. There don\u2019t seem to be any original elements present, so it\u2019s unclear what the purpose is. These seemingly line up with a colonnaded street near the <em>porta principalis dextra<\/em> farther to the south, so maybe this is meant to indicate the extension of that road. Sadly there is seemingly no information available. About 26 meters west of that, though, are the remains of a residential building. The colonnaded <em>atrium<\/em> with an <em>impluvium<\/em> basin is pretty recognizable, but the rest of the house just seems to be indistinct rooms with no defining features. It looks like there was once an informational sign on the west side, but it is no longer legible. The house (and columns) are in a public space with no restriction in access; a small stairway leads down from the square to the house, but it\u2019s very visible from above as well.<\/p>\n<p>Across the street to the south (V\u00f6r\u00f6sv\u00e1ri \u00fat) is the Fl\u00f3ri\u00e1n t\u00e9r park. In the northeast corner of the park, right adjacent to V\u00f6r\u00f6sv\u00e1ri \u00fat, are the remains of the southern gate of the legionary <em>castrum<\/em>, the <em>porta principalis dextra<\/em>. Unlike the octagonal towers of Aquincum&#8217;s <em>porta praetoria<\/em>, this gate has square towers and employs a double entryway rather than a triple entryway. This gate is also not preserved\/reconstructed beyond a few courses of stone. Originally constructed in the second half of the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> century CE, the gate underwent a major structural change in the 4<sup>th<\/sup> century CE when the eastern of the two portals was walled up, leaving only the western entrance useable. The <em>cardo maximus<\/em> of the <em>castrum<\/em> terminated here and continued as a road leading south along the Danubius. Patches of paving stones from the road outside the gate, as well as within the gate can be seen.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10538\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0096-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0096-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Area of the porta principalis dextra.

Epigraphic evidence suggests a sanctuary to Nemisis located here, and with the lack of a sublevel, the animals were held in <em>carcers<\/em> at the east and west sides of the amphitheater.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10540\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10540\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0113-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.roamintheempire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMGP0113-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Military amphitheater from the southwest.

There is a gate at the west end that is closed, but unlocked. The place was pretty overgrown, generally. Though the entire circuit of the amphitheater is preserved to some degree, the <em>cavea<\/em> are preserved at the greatest height in the southwest corner, allowing for good views over the entirety of the structure. Since it is more or less a public park, there isn\u2019t really any restriction to access. If you can get there, you can go there, with the exception of the <em>carcer<\/em> on the west side, which is enclosed and gated. Unfortunately, much of it was overgrown when I visited, limiting movement somewhat. There\u2019s no information about the amphitheater present on site.<\/p>\n<p>It took a very solid whole day to see everything of Aquincum between the two amphitheaters. Including travel time to and from central Budapest and between the sites, seeing the remains of the civilian and military settlements was a close to a 12 hour day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Continued In Aquincum, Pannonia Inferior &#8211; Part VI<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ammianus Marcellinus. <em>Res Gestae<\/em>, 30.5.<\/p>\n<p>Grant, Michael. <em>A Guide to the Ancient World: A Dictionary of Classical Place Names<\/em>.&nbsp; New York: Barnes &amp; Noble Books, 1997.<\/p>\n<p>Kiss, Zsuzsanna Em\u00edlia. \u201cThe Inscriptions of the Construction and Recovery Works of the Public Buildings and Utilities in Aquincum.\u201d <em>Periodica Polytechnica Architecture<\/em>, Vol 51, No. 2 (2020), pp. 108-123.<\/p>\n<p>L\u00e1ng, Orsolya. \u201cFunctions and Phases: The \u2018Peristyle-House\u2019 in the Civil Town of Aquincum.\u201d <em>DOMUS: Das Haus in den St\u00e4dten der r\u00f6mischen Donauprovinzen<\/em>, Peter Scherrer, \u00d6sterreichisches Arch\u00e4ologisches Institut Wien, 2008, pp. 271-284.<\/p>\n<p>L\u00e1ng, Orsolya. \u201cIndustry and Commerce in the City of Aquincum.\u201d <em>Urban Craftsmen and Traders in the Roman World<\/em>, Andrew Wilson and Miko Flohr, Oxford University Press, 2016, pp. 352-376.<\/p>\n<p>L\u00e1ng, Orsolya. \u201cReconsidering the Aquincum Macellum.\u201d <em>Acta Archaeologica Academiae Scientarium Hungaricae<\/em>.
