Rutupije

Rutupije (latinski: Rutupiæ) je drevni rimski naziv za današnji Richborough, naselje kraj Sandwicha u engleskoj grofoviji Kent, odnosno jednu od glavnih luka rimske Britanije. Osnovan je godine 43. za vrijeme rimske invazije nakon što se tamo iskrcala glavnina rimskih snaga. Zajedno sa obližnjim Dubrisom (današnji Dover) predstavljao je jednu od početnih točaka za rimski put danas poznat kao Watling Street, a koji je vodio na sjever prema današnjem Londonu i Canterburyju. Na njegovoj lokaciji se nalaze brojne ruševine iz rimskog perioda, poznate kao Richboroughska tvrđava ili Richboroughska rimska tvrđava. Od 3. vijeka je počeo gubiti na civilnoj važnosti, te je služio prije svega kao utvrđenje za obranu rimske Britanije od saksonskih pirata - ruševine iz tog perioda su poznate kao Richboroughski zamak (Richborough Castle).
