Wrong painting! edit

Vetera II was never a fortification on the right side of the Rhine. In roman times the river had nearly the same course than in modern times (just a little bit more south). The deep extension down south (east, south and west of Vetera II in this wrong picture) happend in mediaval times (1200). If you like, I send you a scan of the right map, used in nearly all archeological publications about this. Hartmann Linge (talk) 13:30, 17 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
