The hypothesis that the cantonment of Legio SAW Victrix .unidad that participated in the Astur-Cantabrian (29 adC-19 adC) Wars, long time parked in Hispania remaining then. it had preceded Legio VII Gemina in the same place that this occupied later every time it seems surer.The archaeological evidences that you/they come to verify the beginning of the Roman establishment have been provided by made excavations as much in the interior as outside of the fortified current enclosure. The first, besides attesting important vestiges of the occupation of Legio VII Gemina, they have allowed to determine the existence of two precedent camps. The oldest would be dated among the last years of the century I adC and the beginnings of the following century. Little time later the second it would be erected, lasting until practically the arrival of Legio VII Gemina.
