In addition, a section of road - about 3 m wide that proceeds in the direction of WNW- ESE, consisting of two layers of use - has been intercepted.

Their data, crossed with a Numidian epigraph and with some other historical sources, allows outlining the garrison that occupied the fort in the first part of the third century AD. Groups of African knights recruited on an ethnic basis were placed in the province at the beginning of the 3rd century AD and maintained there as fast deploying troops deputed to the contrast of tribal uprisings in the hilly territories of the newly established province of Britannia Inferior, and probably to support military operations north of Hadrian's Wall as well.
