Archaeology of Pax Romana between Burnum and Tilurium. Landscape of Conflicts?

One of the last stages of the great Illyrian uprising took place in the area between Burnum and Tilurium between 6th and 9th CE. This uprising is known as Bellum Batonianum, which was named after two leaders of the rebellion. Suetonius' words in Tiberius's biography (I, 16) „ ... pessimum omnium externorum bellorum post Punica“, best attest to the nature of the conflict and how much it affected the Roman state. A period of peace (pax Romana) in the Roman province of Dalmatia could begin only after overpowering the rebels. The peace was also very beneficial for Italy which was guarded by Dalmatian coastal routes. Peacetime advatage was achieved by the Romans through the strategic deployment of legionary and auxiliary military units in the area between Burnum and Tilurium. This paper seeks to explore whether the spatial arrangement of the units had a certain system and whether the spatial arrangement of the auxiliary units had any significance in that system.
