Guard appeared with the professional Roman army, it reached its peak with the Principate, initially having a guard function for the Roman military commander, it became in time the most effective

This maxim, penned by the Roman writer Vegetius, describes the Roman military principle of depleting enemy resources to increase one’s likelihood of victory. ^[33] The aim of the PhD research on which this chapter is based is to reconstruct and analyse the cultural landscape of the Dutch limes area using computational approaches, specifically to model and analyse transport networks, settlement patterns and their relationship with the natural environment, to better understand the interactions between the Roman military population and the local population that lived in this frontier region. ^[34] The account is found in Agricola, the eponymous biography of Julia’s father, Gnaeus Julius Agricola, a Gallo-Roman military commander, pontiff and governor of Britannia. ^[35] We analyse these
