This is the first of a planned series of studies on 1st century
pottery from Amiens (studies on 3rd and 4th century material are
planned by D Bayard, and pottery clearly to the 2nd century
seems to be almost non-existent from Amiens). Basically it is a
type series of terra nigra, terra rubra and related wares,
such as butt beakers and narrow-necked jars (Cam form 231/232).
Well presented, with many parallels quoted and much detailed
discussion of the derivation and dating of individual types. It
is worthwhile comparing this material with what is presented in
entry no. 628, early wares found at Trier. See also entry no.

A reasoned type series of the earliest pottery from the
Kaiserthermen at Trier. The Gallo-Belgic forms, including terra
nigra, terra rubra, butt beakers and early wall-sided mortaria
are noticeably similar to Claudian material found in Britain. It
is worthwhile comparing this material with what is presented in
entry no. 592, early wares found at Amiens.

Situated about 50km southeast of Amiens, the site at Beuvraignes
is apparently the first 3rd century kiln-site to have been
excavated in Picardie. Part of a programme of evaluations in
advance of the building of the northern extension of the TGV, a
large area (7500 m2) of the site was opened in order
to assess its archaeological potential, although ultimately only
the eastern half is likely to be directly threatened by the TGV.
As well as several kilns, the site

also revealed a considerable
area apparently devoted to activities associated with pottery
production, including workshops and storage areas. This,
however, is only a brief summary of the work: a large general
plan is shown, along with photographs of a decantation tank, a
cellar, and two kilns (both surviving to an unusual degree of
completeness), and there are line-drawings of eleven vessels,
divided into dish/bowls, jars and pentice-moulded beakers, plus
one flagon. The pentice-moulded beakers are closely paralleled
at Colchester and London, although it is difficult to know how
wide the Beuvraignes distribution may have been.
Location: not stated, but the excavations were carried out in
association with the Direction des Antiquités at Amiens
