By the 5th century BC, the most powerful
Thracian kingdom was the Odrysian kingdom
of Thrace. The Thracian kingdom
was at one time overrun by the Celts,
but usually maintained its own kings. Thrace
was annexed as a Roman province in 46
A.D.

Over the next few centuries, the province
was periodically and increasingly attacked
by migrating Germanic tribes.

river, the imperial provinces of
Moesia Superior (Serbia) and
Moesia Inferior (North

The Boii (a Celtic tribe) possibly gave their name to Bavaria, and Celtic artefacts and cemeteries have been discovered further east in what is now Poland and Slovakia.
The site of Novae is situated on the southern bank of the Danube, in Bulgaria, near Svishtov. The
camp appeared in 45 AD and initially
provided accommodation to the 8th legion of
Augustus.
