A NOTE ON THE PETROLOGY OF SOME TEGULAE FROM A ROMAN SHIPWRECK OFF YARMOUTH, ISLE OF WIGHT.
Author(s): D F Williams
Thin section analysis of four Roman tegulae showed that three contain a common range of inclusions making it difficult to predict origins. However, the fourth sample appears to have been made from the weathering ofan amphibolite clay. This was certainly not made on the Isle of Wight. The Armorican Massif is a possibility.
