The pottery is derived principally from levels of the 3rd and 4th centuries, from a sequence of occupation commencing with the construction of Stone Fort 2 in c 223-5. The dating evidence for the 3rd century levels is particularly useful and gives rise to a discussion of the date of introduction of certain BB1 types and of certain E. Yorkshire types. There is also extended discussion of Severn Valley ware, Guam Type 151 and mortaria. Over 400 vessels are illustrated and there is a full catalogue. Location: Vindolanda Museum
