A Római Birodalom Határai (Frontiers of the Roman Empire) - A Római Limes Magyarországon (The Roman Limes in Hungary)
Description
The Ripa Pannonica, the outer frontier of Pannonia and of the Roman Empire, lies in the Carpathian Basin along the Danube, within Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia and Serbia. Its main characteristic is that due to the physical obstacle of the Danube, no artificial obstacles like walls or earth works needed to be built. This is why the proper Latin name for this type of frontier is ripa and not limes (though in a broader sense the whole Roman frontier can also be referred to as limes).
