About 150 meters beyond the Limes are the still visible soil deformations of a interpreted by the Reichs Limes Commission as a possible small fortune findings, [55] which had already been documented by Rossel [56] and Cohausen [57] . The Commission identified a trapezoidal earthwork [58]with a shallow wall and a shallow trench, but contented itself with the survey and description of the visible ground deformations and did not make any excavations. Inside was a low hill surrounded by a flat, 6.50 m diameter, circular ditch. If it was a Roman fort at all, it was probably only in use for a short time. Judging by the name and the findings, it is very likely a modern oak plantation, of which there are similar ones in the Taunus. [59]
