Extract

Castra Regina (mod. Regensburg; or, from its Celtic name of Rataspona, Ratisbon), a Flavian military station in *Raetia, facing the confluences of the Regen and the Naab with the Danube (*Danuvius). Its auxiliary garrison was, under Marcus Aurelius, replaced by Legio III Italica, but Augsburg (Augusta Vindelicorum) remained the provincial capital.
