Ilkley Roman Fort
Ilkley Roman Fort is a Roman fort on the south bank of the River Wharfe, situated at the centre of where Ilkley, a Victorian spa town in West Yorkshire, England now stands.
==Identification==
The traditional view is that ''Olicana'' is the fort at Ilkley, but the identification is not settled.〔(ILKLEY ) - ''The Romans in West Yorkshire'' - West Yorkshire Archaeology Advisory Service〕 Ptolemy mentions ''Olikana'' in his Geographia (c. 150), although Rivet and Smith give ''Olenacum'' as the proper form of the name, rejecting Ptolemy's ''Olikana'' as corrupt.〔Rivet, A. L. F., and Smith, C., 1962, ''The place names of Roman Britain''〕 The 1086 Domesday Book gives ''Ilecliue'' also variants ''Illecliue'', ''Illiclei'' and ''Illicleia'' for Ilkley. Modern scholarship has, however, suggested that the Roman name would be better applied to the fort at Elslack (''Eleslac'' in Domesday Book) near Skipton.〔
Rivet and Smith suggest the name ''Verbeia'' instead, this being the Roman name for the River Wharfe.〔Rivet, A. L. F., and Smith, C., 1962, ''The place names of Roman Britain'' p.43〕 An altar-stone dedicated to the goddess Verbeia is thought to originate from the site.
