Das ‘Carnuntum Jahrbuch. Zeitschrift für Archäologie und Kulturgeschichte des Donauraumes‘ versteht sich als das wissenschaftliche Forum zur Vorlage von Grabungs-, Fund- und Forschungsberichten aus Carnuntum und seinem Einzugsgebiet. Darüber hinaus bietet die Zeitschrift die Möglichkeit zur Publikation von aktuellen Forschungen auf dem Gebiet der Archäologie und Kulturgeschichte des gesamten Donauraumes.
Den Auftakt des aktuellen Bandes (2022) bilden zwei Beiträge zum norischen Abschnitt des österreichischen Donaulimes: Die Kostenpfadanalyse aus dem Hinterland von Mautern/Favianis von J. Klammer legt eine GIS-analytische Untersuchung über Lagebeziehungen des Kastells zu benachbarten Wachtürmen vor. In einer Materialstudie besprechen B. Kainrath und E. Thysell römische Militärgürtel aus Lauriacum/Enns als regionalspezifisches Phänomen. Der Abschnitt „Ausgrabungen und Funde“ enthält heuer drei Beiträge mit Carnuntiner Schwerpunkt: N. Silnović widmet sich einem Relief mit Cautopates aus dem Umfeld des Mithraskultes, und G. Kremer stellt mit ihrem Team ein Projekt zu Farbuntersuchungen auf antiken Steindenkmälern aus Carnuntum vor, hier im Speziellen die Farbfassung eines Löwenaufsatzes. Ein siedlungsarchäologischer Beitrag zur Carnuntiner Zivilstadt von C. Gugl, S. Radbauer und E. Pollhammer führt Ergebnisse von Prospektionen und älteren Feldforschungen aus 1976 erfolgreich zusammen und erlaubt so einen weiteren Schritt zur Vervollständigung des Stadtplanes von Carnuntum.

Verbindungswege zwischen Kastell und Burgi – eine Kostenpfadanalyse aus dem Hinterland von Mautern/Favianis
Nowadays, the GIS (Geographic Information System) application of least-cost path analyses (LCPs) is commonly used in archaeology, describing the best route to reach a destination. Due to different circumstances, the results are usually understood as wider transition areas rather than actual lanes. Therefore, this paper focuses on practical use of the application in order to trace not only historical routes but, first and foremost, historical roads. In a late Roman setting, transfer routes of soldiers moving from a military camp to watchtowers and back are researched. The investigation area covers the Danube Limes camp Favianis in Mautern (Lower Austria) and three adjacent burgi located to the west (Dunkelsteinerwald region). Addressing the main objective, the study includes the analysis of LCP parameters as well as the evaluation of the results by proof of existence and by contemporary dating.

Beaded rim fittings. A regional peculiarity of the military belt from Lauriacum/Enns
The majority of the fittings of Roman military belts are types that are common throughout the Roman Empire. For the Lauriacum/Enns area, on the other hand, thanks to research in recent years, there is evidence of representatives that not only indicate regional production, but also have a limited distribution. One of these belt fittings is a non-perforated, long rectangular type made of extremely thin sheet metal and decorated with a beaded pattern on the side edges. Since such fittings are also present at the site of Stein/St. Pantaleon-Erla, which can be dated earlier in terms of military presence, a possible dating of such fittings as well as questions regarding the workshop are discussed.

Relief of a Cautopates from Carnuntum
A relief depicting Cautopates, reportedly found in the civilian settlement in Carnuntum, was acquired by the Museum Carnuntinum in 1970. Both the execution and the distorted proportions show typical provincial characteristics observable in numerous other sculptures from Carnuntum, and based on its stylistic characteristics, the relief is approximately dated to the second half of the 2nd cent. AD. The comparative analysis of similar types of sculptures with depictions of torchbearers from Mithraeum I and III from Carnuntum, as well as from elsewhere, allows its possible original function to be deduced. It is assumed that the relief was most likely installed at the end of the left podium, close to the entrance to the cella of a Mithraeum. Since the relief was not found in situ, it is not possible to associate it with absolute certainty with any of the known Mithraea from Carnuntum. Thus, the relief is possibly evidence of another, as yet unknown, Mithraeum in the civilian settlement.

Ein Löwenaufsatz mit polychromer Farbfassung aus Carnuntum
The lion crown from Carnuntum with extensive remains of original polychromy was recently investigated within the framework of the “PolychroMon” research project (Austrian Academy of Sciences). The monument, an architectural component that was used as a separately worked crowning element of a large-format funerary stele, belongs to a well-known type found especially in the Danube-Balkan region during the later 2nd and 3rd centuries. It shows a pair of antithetically placed lying lions, each holding a ram’s head under their right front paws. A head of a bearded man with a Phrygian cap is placed in the middle. The iconographic analysis suggests its identification as Iuppiter Sabazios, which would so far be a unique case among the known lion crowns. Investigations of the polychromy revealed the use of yellow and red ochre, green earth, and carbon black in lime binding, and permitted reconstruction of the painting technique in places. Moreover, the combination of different non-invasive investigation methods gives rise to the possible use of Egyptian blue.

Ein Querschnitt durch die Stadt – Teil 1: Chronologie und Struktur der Carnuntiner Zivilstadt auf Basis von geophysikalischen Messungen und der Notgrabung 1976
In 1976, an emergency excavation was carried out in Petronell-Carnuntum on the occasion of the digging of a water pipe trench, which extended over a length of 1,100 m across the Roman town of Carnuntum and into the peripheral areas of the western suburb. In addition to the finds from these excavations outside the city wall presented in recent years, this article discusses the finds, especially the range of pottery, from the city itself. According to this, settlement activity in the central areas to the east and south-east of the forum can be traced from the Flavian period to the time around AD 400. The ground-penetrating radar measurements in the Roman colony make it possible to integrate the already published results of the 1976 excavations into the inner-city topography. The combined evaluation of the excavation and prospection results also makes it possible to supplement the forum ground plan of the Roman city.
