Roman Pottery from the Colonia

Tanner Row and Rougier Street

by JR Perrin

This report examines the 9,500 sherds of Roman pottery from two sites within the colonia of York. A dating framework is based mainly on the samian ware and mortaria, and there is a discussion of the application of statistical analyses to the wares grouped by fabric and period. This is followed by a report on amphorae from York, which emphasises the important position held by Spanish olive oil and French wine in the economy of the area.
