Augusta Treverorum (Trier/Treves) is correct. The city walls (including the "Porta Nigra") is from the late 2nd-early 3rd Century AD, so you don´t get the extra points.

As for alleged age: most european towns and cities can sport a Bronze Age (or earlier) settlement within the city limit ;). That would be the same as claiming that the city of New York has existed for as long as native americans used Manhatten for forage and agriculture.
