The Vindolanda tablets are among Britain’s and Northern Europe’s oldest surviving handwritten documents, offering unparalleled insights into life of Roman Britain, including the earliest known birthday party invitation written by a woman. Discovered in 1973 at the Roman fort of Vindolanda, they have transformed our understanding of the early Roman occupation of Britain and (military) life in Northern Europe.
 
Professor Emeritus Alan Bowman explores the challenges of deciphering and interpreting the tablets and reveals how they illuminate the social and economic lives of soldiers and their families—with a focus on units recruited from the Lower Rhine region.
