Roman Pottery in Britain by Paul Tyers
The humble pot sherd can be used to date archaeological sites, assess economic activity and help in an understanding of patterns of manufacture and trade, especially within the Roman Empire. This study is concerned with the history of Roman pottery in Britain and offers a thorough and accessible evaluation of the subject.
It examines the role of ceramic studies in Romano-British archaeology, together with the development of pottery studies themselves. The author includes an atlas of almost 100 separate classes of pottery - local and continental - which were used in the province, describing their fabric, technology, form, potters' stamps, dating, source and distribution. |
