ROMAN AMPHORAE RECOVERED FROM THE WOOTTON QUARR SURVEY, FISHBOURNE BAY, ISLE OF WIGHT

Author(s): D F Williams

Identification was made of a group of amphorae sherds recovered during the Wootton Quarr Survey. These included amphora from Italy, Spain, France and possibly Palestine. Of particular interest amongst the Italian material were sherds from the late Republican amphora Dressel 1, suggesting that this area of The Solent was involved in maritime trade during the late Iron Age.
