Segontium Segontium is a Roman fort for a Roman auxiliary force , located on the outskirts of Caernarfon in Gwynedd , north Wales . It probably takes its name from the nearby River Seiont , and may be related to the Segontiaci , a British tribe mentioned by Julius Caesar . The fort was founded by Agricola in 77 or 78 AD after he had conquered the Ordovices . It was the main Roman fort in the north of Roman Wales and was designed to hold about a thousand auxiliary infantry . It was connected by a Roman road to the Roman legion ary base at Chester , Deva Victrix . Unlike the more recent Caernarfon Castle alongside the Seiont estuary , Segontium is located on higher ground giving a good view of the Menai Strait s . The original timber defences were rebuilt in stone in the first half of the 2nd century AD . An inscription on an aqueduct from the time of the Emperor Septimius Severus indicates that at that time it was garrisoned by Cohors I Sunicorum , which would have originally been levied among the Sunici of Gallia Belgica . The site is now cut through by the A4085 road to Beddgelert , but the remains of most of the buildings are preserved . The visitor centre and small museum exhibiting finds made in and around the fort is now closed . Guidebooks can be bought from other Cadw sites , including Caernarfon Castle . Outside the fort , the remains of a civilian settlement have been found , together with a Roman temple of Mithras , the Caernarfon Mithraeum and a cemetery . Segontium is implicit in the name of the surrounding town , because " caer " means fort . The name of the town of Caernarfon is the corrupted form of " Caer yn ar - Fon " , which means " Fort in ( the land ) opposite Mon " . Segontium in mythology and fiction . In " Breuddwyd Macsen Wledig " ( " The dream of Macsen Wledig " ) , one of the Four Independent Tales in the Mabinogion , Macsen ( who can be identified with Magnus Maximus , who made a bid for Roman emperor in 383 ) dreams of a beautiful woman who turns out to be at " the fort at the mouth of the Seiont " . Wallace Breem ' s novel " Eagle in the Snow " begins and ends in post - Roman Segontium , and references the temple of Mithras . Segontium features as a significant location in Mary Stewart ' s Merlin trilogy , specifically in " The Crystal Cave " , ISBN 978 - 1444737486 and " The Hollow Hills " , ISBN 978 - 1444737509 .

Edward H . Watson Edward Howe Watson ( February 28 , 1874 – January 7 , 1942 ) was a career United States Navy officer , who led a squadron of destroyer s aground off Point Honda on the California coast in 1923 . Early life and marriage . Watson was born in Frankfort , Kentucky , a son of Commander John Crittendon Watson , USN . Watson married Hermine Cary Gratz who came from a family of five siblings , including a half sister , Helen , who married Godfrey Rockefeller of Greenwich , Connecticut . Navy career . Academy and early career . Watson graduated from the U . S . Naval Academy in June 1895 and served on several ships during the rest of the decade , including Spanish - American War service on board the cruiser .

During World War I , Watson was in command of the battleship , receiving the Navy Cross . In March 1919 , he became U . S . Naval Attaché in Japan , remaining in that post until May 1922 . In July of that year , he took command of Destroyer Squadron 11 , based on the West Coast . Honda Point disaster . On September 8 , 1923 , dead reckoning navigation errors on his flagship resulted in the loss of seven of the squadron ' s destroyers through stranding on the rocky coast at Honda Point , California . This was known as the Honda Point Disaster and Watson was court martial ed for his leadership in the event . An editorial in the " Army and Navy Journal " read in part " . . . Captain Watson has given a splendid example of the finest attributes of character overcoming the elemental instinct of self - preservation . Voluntarily waiving the fundamental right of a defendant to place the burden of proof upon the prosecution , and to refrain from testifying under oath to any facts that might tend to incriminate himself , he took the witness stand and not only freely testified to facts relating to his own culpability but also volunteered his opinion under oath that he was wholly responsible for the disaster , and that none of his subordinates should be blamed . " The book itself shows this was an act of outstanding honor and leadership ; that in fact the causes of the tragedy lay in new technology , fog and a series of small errors resulting in the fleet not being where its navigators believed it should be ; but given the tradition of chain of command , the man at the top took responsibility . Post - Honda Point career and retirement . After the Honda Point disaster , Watson served as Assistant Commandant of the Fourteenth Naval District , in Hawaii until he left active duty in November 1929 . He retired to New York City , where he was in the New York Social Register .
