What was life like on hadrians wall?

Life on Hadrian's Wall during the Roman Empire (around 122 AD onward) was a mix of military duty, harsh conditions, and some community life. Here's a breakdown: Military Life Roman soldiers, often auxiliaries from across the empire (not just Italy), were stationed in forts along the wall. Daily life included patrolling, guard duty, training, and maintaining the wall itself. Soldiers lived in barracks, ate basic rations (bread, porridge, meat), and followed strict discipline. Harsh Conditions The weather in northern Britain was cold, wet, and windy, making life tough. Soldiers had to endure long, isolated postings far from home. There were constant threats from local tribes like the Picts, though large-scale battles were rare. Civilian Life Towns and settlements grew around the forts, where traders, blacksmiths, families, and local Britons lived. Some soldiers had unofficial wives and children, even though Roman law didn’t allow legal marriage for soldiers until later. Roman culture blended with local Celtic traditions in these communities. Trade and Interaction The wall wasn’t just a barrier—it was also a customs and trade checkpoint. Goods, animals, and people passed through gates and forts like Vindolanda and Housesteads. Archaeological finds show people used writing tablets, imported goods, and personal items, indicating a surprisingly connected life.
