ROMAN AMPHORAE FROM COUNTY HALL, DORCHESTER, DORSET.

Author(s): D F Williams

Examination of some 144 amphorae sherds resulted in the identification of the following types; Dressel 20, Dressel 2-4, Pelichet 47, North African and southern Spanish. The majority of sherds belonged to the Spanish olive oil form Dressel 20, while there were proportionately fewer sherds of the southern French wine amphora Pelichet 47 than at the other Dorchester sites of Greyhound Yard and Methodist Chapel (A.M.L Report 25/88).
