Romans conquered what is now Lincolnshire in AD 48 and built a legionary fortress, which was replaced, around AD 60, by a second fort on a hill overlooking the natural lake formed by the widening of the River Witham.
About AD 80, the fort was converted to a colonia,called Lindum Colonia, after the legion moved on to York - called Eboracum by The Romans, in AD 71.
The town became a major settlement, accessible from the sea through the River Trent and through the River Witham.
Public buildings, such as the forum and basilica and the public baths, were erected much later in the 2nd century.
The hilltop was occupied by private homes, but the slopes became the town's commercial centre.
Stone walls were added around AD 200.
