Petuaria Fort, Naval Base and town

Petuaria became the Civitate for the Parisi.  The Archaeological evidence is by no means complete on this site.  It is clear that it was a walled town or settlement.  Some reports reference it as an early fort and naval base, and that it became a Civitas, the capital of the terrritory of the Parisi.  The archaelogical finds do not indicate substantial structures to warrant the Civitas status, and there are a paucitiy of military finds.  The listed Archaelogical report is worth reading.
