Perfect weather today. Yesterday evening we actually had sun and brisk winds. This dries the site off quickly. We were working in the same area as in recent days but with new features peeking out. Also peeking out were some small finds. First up a chunk of amphora, one of those whopping big Roman storage jars for wine, olive oil etc. Usually very generic this one has either graffiti or logo. Perhaps this was some low end stuff....Brand X?
And for those interested in "features" here's our trench at the end of the day. Remember that interpretation is above my pay grade and in any case provisional. But you should be seeing here a mix of early 3rd century flooring and mid 2nd century road cobbles and pavers. Might there eventually be a road side drain full of interesting things? Stay tuned.
