FISH REMAINS FROM EXCAVATIONS AT CANVEY ISLAND, SITE 1, 1986.

Author(s): A K G Jones

Ten small samples of fish remains of medieval and Roman date are identified and briefly discussed. Similar material from an eroding coastal site is rare in Southern Britain. The concentration of remains is high, particularly in the medieval samples and almost certainly represents waste from a coastal fishery supplying the area. The roman sample is less easy to interpret. Further work on the deposits is recommended.
