The Roman Fort of Carpow was situated at the confluence of the rivers Tay and Earn in what is now Scotland. It was a large fortress with an area of thirty acres occupied by two legions at different times, Legio II Augusta and Legio VI Victrix, and thus of solid, permanent construction using stone, brick and tiles. However, its site on the southern side of the Tay estuary is incompatible with its use as a base for Severan offensive operations to the north and, along with other evidence, it is more likely that the fortress was built under Commodus in 185 to support his campaigns.

rdfs:comment	Carpow, starověká římská pevnost, ležela na území dnešního Skotska, a to na soutoku řek Tay a Earn. Vzhledem k rozloze téměř 12 hektarů šlo o jednu z velkých pevností. Posádku tvořily postupně dvě legie, Legio II Augusta a Legio VI Victrix. Pevnost postavili z trvanlivého, odolného materiálu: z kamene a cihel, střešní krytinu tvořily tašky. Sloužila od druhé poloviny 2. století do začátku 3. století, zejména v době kampaně Septimia Severa v této oblasti mezi léty 208 a 211. Kvůli poloze na jižní straně ústí Tay však nemohla být používána jako základna pro jeho útoky na sever a pravděpodobně byla postavena v roce 185 za vlády římského císaře Commoda, aby podporovala jeho kampaně. Lokalita zatím nebyla celá prozkoumána, ale pravděpodobně právě odtamtud byly zásobovány římské jednotky v oko (cs) The Roman Fort of Carpow was situated at the confluence of the rivers Tay and Earn in what is now Scotland.

(en) Il forte romano di Carpow era situato nella confluenza dei fiumi Tay ed Earn in Scozia. L'attuale sito archeologico si trova nella frazione di Carpow, situata a Perth e Kinross, in Scozia. Era una grande fortezza con un'area di 30 acri (120 000 m²) occupata da due legioni in tempi diversi, Legio II Augusta e Legio VI Victrix, e per cui di costruzione solida e permanente utilizzando pietra, mattoni e tegole. È stato suggerito che il forte di Carpow fosse il luogo chiamato "Horrea Classis" o "Poreo Classis" nella cosmografia di Ravenna. (it) O Forte Romano de Carpow estava localizado na confluência dos rios Tay e , onde hoje é a Escócia. Era uma grande fortaleza com uma área de trinta hectares ocupada por duas legiões em períodos diferentes, Legio II Augusta e Legio VI Victrix, e portanto de construção sólida e permanente em pedra, tijolo e azulejos. Contudo, sua localização no lado sul do estuário Tay é incompatível com seu uso como base para operações ofensivas Severas ao norte e junto com outras evidências, é mais provável que a fortaleza foi construída sob Cómodo em 185 para apoiar suas campanhas.
