As with entry no. 613, the subject of this paper is one which would not normally be included in the Bibliography, as it is well outside the sphere of pottery found in Roman Britain. Yet the illustrations clearly demonstrate a number of obvious links with pottery made in Britain. The paper is the result of a joint effort (from 1977 to 1981) of roughly twenty researchers working at sites in the Savoie region, in the Lyons region, near Geneva and around Lake Geneva as far north as Avenches, and at points in between these places. The vessels most similar to Romano-British products are wall-sided bowls with scroll-like painted decoration, which might as easily have been made either in the New Forest or Oxfordshire (Young form C69); also plates with broad curving rim (Young form C48). There are numerous examples of Drag 30/37-shaped bowls with circular stamped decorations very similar to the East Anglian products which appear to imitate London ware (cf. Rodwell, in Arthur & Marsh, Figs. 7.10-7.13). Finally there are beakers there are beakers which are typologically indistinguishable from 3rd and 4th century ‘Rhenish’ forms. See also entry no. 661.

A presentation of possible computer applications to the study of Roman pottery. In particular, there is a demonstration of how the shape of a pottery vessel might be digitalized into a computer by means of a video camera. Unfortunately the drawings produced via this method seem a little crude, but the objective is a mathematical comparison of shapes, and it does seem that this could be an avenue well worth pursuing. There is also a demonstration of the compilation of a computerized archaeological dictionary/glossary of terms. (See also entry no. 643).

An interesting collection of early Roman material from Salzburg. There is a substantial amount of Italian samian, but also other early fine wares similar to types found in the earliest levels in Britain. See also entry no. 632, for a more extensive collection of similarly dated material.

A lengthy paper on pre-Claudian pottery from Xanten, mostly from graves and occupation pre-dating the Colonia. There seems, however, to be less Arretine ware than is illustrated in entry no.631, and rather more mould-decorated South Gaulish samian. At the end of the paper there is a demonstration of the evolution of the settlement into the
