ΜΠΙΝΓΚΕΝ (Πόλη) ΡΗΝΑΝΙΑ-ΠΑΛΑΤΙΝΑΤΟ
Bingium (Bingen) Rhineland Palatinate, Germany.
A Roman settlement on the right bank of the Nahe (ancient Nava) where it joins
the Rhine. A bridge of the Roman Rhine valley route which crossed the Nava at
this point was protected by a castellum for auxiliary troops in the first half
of the 1st c. A.D. Particularly important in the Roman road network was a route
from Bingen to the imperial town of Trier, which is marked in the Peutinger Table.
Stationed at Bingen were Cohors IV Delmatarum, Cohors I Pannoniorum, and Cohors
I Sagittiariorum, which is attested by gravestones, as well as the Legio XXII
Primigenia Pia Fidelis. In 370 the Roman writer Ausonius mentioned that the town
was surrounded by a wall which the emperor Julian had built in 359 (Amm. Marc.
18.2). There is evidence of milites Bingenses under a praefectus ca. 400.
Many graves from the civil settlement are preserved. The most notable
is a doctor's grave from the beginning of the 2d c. A.D., containing a rich assortment
of bronze instruments: basin, scalpel, trapan, pincers, spatula, etc. (exhibited
in Burg Klopp, Bingen).
