Archaeologists in the Netherlands have unearthed the remains of temples where Roman soldiers once offered gifts to their deities and goddesses.

A group of archaeologists have unearthed a nearly 2,000-year-old Roman temple complex in the Netherlands. The discovery has astonished and excited archaeologists, as it is the first time that temples have been discovered in the northern areas of the former Roman Empire.

The temple complex was found in a clay mining area in the village of Herwen-Hemeling, in the eastern province of Gelderland near the border with Germany. The area is located near the Roman Limes area which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

Ekipet e arkeologëve mendojnë se dy tempujt e epokës romake janë përdorur mes shekujve të parë dhe të katërt. Dhe bazuar në llojet e mbishkrimeve si dhe të objekteve të tilla si shtiza, mbetje pajisjesh ushtarake apo parzmore kuajsh, arkeologët besojnë se kompleksi i tempullit përdorej kryesisht nga ushtarët.

The found objects provide archaeologists with more details about life in the Roman period. For example, the small stone altars and their careful inscriptions show how the Roman soldiers expressed their gratitude and what they were grateful for. According to scholars, offerings to thank a god or goddess and to ask them to fulfill wishes were not always associated with winning battles, but also simply with survival in the northern regions away from home and family./ DW
