The Plan of the Saxon Shore Fort at Richborough
Recent excavation and coring of the collapsed east wall of the Saxon Shore fort of Richborough has revealed the manner in which the wall collapsed. This led to a re-evaluation of the original siting of the wall, which must have lain to the west of where it is usually depicted. Reassessment of previous excavations, including the examination of original records from the J.P. Bushe-Fox excavations of the 1920s and 1930s leads to the conclusion that …
Roman Amphitheatres and Spectacula
This collection of papers approaches the Roman amphitheatre from a range of perspectives both architectural and social. Coverage includes both regional and site-specific studies presenting the latest archaeological findings and research in the field, as well as sections on the social and functional aspects of the amphitheatre and on the games as spectacle
Two Left-Handed Gladiators in Britain
Two of the most frequently reproduced images of gladiatorial combat from Britain are a slate relief of a retiarius from Chester and the famous Colchester vase, a barbotine decorated cup adorned with arena scenes. Despite the familiarity of these images, an important fact seems to have been generally overlooked: the objects appear to show gladiators who are left-handed
Collapse Theory and the End of Birdoswald
We must accept that the soldiers of the Wall returned to the soil from which they sprang. Thus, in the absence of evidence for the post-Roman period on the frontier, did Breeze and Dobson (1976: 232) conclude their account of Hadrian's Wall in the third and fourth centuries. Excavations by the Central Archaeological Service of English Heritage at Birdoswald, directed by the writer between 1987-92 have highlighted the period, and buildings post-da…
A Lost Tile Pavement at Tewkesbury Abbey and an Early Fourteenth-Century Tile Factory
The products of a tilery working in the Welsh marches in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries with a probable production centre at Hereford, can be identified at a number of sites through petrological analysis. The accuracy of the heraldic tiles allows careful analysis from which dates, and possible commissions may be identified. The tilery began the production of accurate heraldic designs c. 1260. These were augmented by Chertsey-Halesown cop…
