Instead, the Roman army was trained to engage its adversaries in the open field, in which context its well drilled troops could bring to bear their highly sophisticated and almost invariably successful military tactics, recently and memorably depicted in the opening scenes of Ridley Scott's film "Gladiator".
At Inveresk, the 2000 AD excavations have demonstrated that the internal roads of the fort were important enough to have been completely rebuilt by the soldiers on at least one and possibly two occasions, despite their presence at the site perhaps having only extended over a period of 25 years.
Initially these would have been constructed in those areas where sources of good building stone were readily available, but eventually building in stone became standard practice for the army, from about the middle of the second century AD onwards.

WHILE Inveresk is headquartered in North Carolina, its roots are in Scotland and it has a major European presence, something Charles River was interested in.
Inveresk is already on of Charles River's major clients for purebred laboratory rat, mice, and other animals for testing.
