AMPHORAE FROM THE LATE ROMAN NORTHERN SUBURB, WINCHESTER.
Author(s): D F Williams, K Holmes
Identification of a large group of Roman amphorae from the recent excavations at the Northern Suburb, Winchester (2,580 sherds). By far the most common form present is the southern Spanish Dressel 20 which carried olive-oil, followed by lesser amounts of Gallic types (mainly Pelichet 47), Dresel 2-4, Normandy type, ?eastern Mediterranean, southern Spanish, ?African cylindrical, Camulodonum 185A and Camulodonum 186sp. Some of these types are early in date and it is likely that much of this material may be residual in the Late Roman levels at Northern Suburbs.
