| Supposed Site of the BATTLE OF MONS GRAMPIUS (Continued) | 052 | [continued from page 16b] being hit upon by either means; yet as so many camps have already been found to exist in whole or in part, this of the two methods, seems to be what would promise most success. The most likely places to examine and search for such vestiges, would therefore to be on the south side of the valley near Laurencekirk, Keir, or Drumliethy. That Agricola would choose this side seems probable, since the enemy being in possession of the Grampians he would not have thought it consistent with prudence to have encamped close under the hills which they occupied. The victory gained over Galgacus finished the Seventh Campaign, and with it put an end to the active military operations of Agricola in Britain" (page 87) General Roy's Work on Roman Antiquities. p [page] 84 to 87. |
