EXAMINATION OF SLAG FROM VARIOUS ROMAN SITES IN EXETER.
Author(s): P Wilthew
Small quantities of slag and other material from ten sites in Exeter were examined. Identifications of the samples are given and the technological significance of the samples is discussed. The material provided evidence for iron smithing on or near some of the sites but probably only on a small scale. There was no evidence for iron smelting or that any of the sites included major ironworking areas.
