THE ROMAN AMPHORAE FROM EXETER, DEVON.

Author(s): D F Williams

An examination of some 300 sherds of amphorae resulted in the identification of the following types: Dressel 20, Camulodunum 185A, Camulodunum 186A, southern Spanish, Pelichet 47, Peacock & Williams Class 59, Carrot type Peacock & Williams Class 66, Rhodian style, Richborough 527, Dressel 2-4, Hollow Foot and North African cylindrical. From this it is clear that the site was receiving olive-oil and fish products from southern Spain, olive-oil from north Africa and wine from France, Rhodes and Italy.
