Begun in AD 122, the Vallum Aelium (Hadrian’s Wall) was the first of two fortifications built across Roman Britain in order to provide additional defense against barbarian tribes to the north. Its construction closely followed the path of the River Tyne, and provides an additional backdrop to Hadrian’s travel series of coinage.
