In northwestern Germany, the locality of Delbrück-Bentfeld in the district of the city of Paderborn has recently become the site of several groundbreaking discoveries about ancient Roman history.
In 2017, archaeologists uncovered remnants of a Roman farmstead in the area. It was initially believed to be an isolated site, so an excavation was conducted at the farmstead and the discovery was largely forgotten afterward. But by 2024, researchers had revisited the site and uncovered other similar ancient farmsteads, pointing to the existence of a substantial Roman settlement about 90 miles beyond the Roman Empire’s borders.
