Antwerp is a port city on Belgium’s River Scheldt, dating to the Middle Ages. It is one of the world’s major seaports. The Schelde, together with the Meuse and the Rhine, forms the biggest estuary in western Europe, and Antwerp is an essential part of an enormous harbour complex, one of the greatest in the world.
The city is also known for its diamond industry and trade. Historical Antwerp allegedly had its origins in a Gallo-Roman vicus. Excavations carried out in the oldest section near the Scheldt, 1952–1961 produced pottery shards and fragments of glass from the mid-2nd century to the end of the 3rd century. The earliest mention of Antwerp dates from the 4th century.
