ROMAN AMPHORAE FROM SOUTH SHIELDS FORT, CO DURHAM.
Author(s): D F Williams
Identification of a new form of Roman amphora with a distinctive almond rim, as yet unrecognized from Romano-British sites. Petrological and other evidence suggests a source in Campania, Italy, possibly as the successor to the Dressel 2-4 type. Production seems to have occurred during the third and fourth centuries A.D.
