Figure 5: Area around the west gateway (looking south). The rows of posts follow the curve of the rampart. In the middle of the excavation four large posts flank (in pairs) the axial street. About 8m from the gateway, in the front of the picture, is a double row of posts at right-angles to the rampart – presumably a strengthening element of the gateway area. Also to be seen are traces of drainage ditches, presumably leading from the fortress. Image credit: Nationalmuseet 1950 (Used with permission.
