AMPHORAE FROM CATTERICK

Author(s): D F Williams

Identification of a small group of amphorae from Catterick. These included a number of sherdsin the 'black sand' fabric characteristics of Campania, in particular the area around Pompeii and Herculaneum. A shoulder sherd amongst this group belongs to the Dressel 2-4 wine amphora type, while a rim and handle sherd may belong to a new type previously noted in northern Campania and possibly dated to the second century A.D. or later. A number of Gauloise 4 sherds were also noted.
