The fort was established during the reign of the emperor Hadrian, around AD 122 as a command and supply base for the coastal defences of Hadrian's Wall at its western extremity. Alauna was a castrum or fort in the Roman province of Britannia. It occupied a coastal site just north of the town of Maryport in the English county of Cumbria, formerly part of Cumberland. It was linked by a Roman road to the Roman fort and settlement at Derventio, Papcastle, to the southeast, and thence by another road northeast to the regional hub of Luguvalium, Carlisle.
