Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Much new evidence has come to light since publication of Curle's classic papers on the subject; except for coins, which are regularly treated elsewhere, the material is newly tabulated and discussed. It is grouped according to category of site, with unassociated/unrecorded material treated separately, and Traprain having a summary list to itself. Discussion continues on the problem of how so much rich and fine material came into native hands, but not all can be put down to looting and some of it must have been acquired by legitimate trade via the fort-annexes (at least one of which attained the status of a vicus). The coin distribution also suggests regular Roman-native interchange. The material is discussed and mapped for 1st, 2nd and 3rd-4th centuries respectively. There was a steady drift into native hands during the Antonine occupation of N Britain, and while the most valuable goods stayed in S Scotland, less valuable material penetrated at second or third hand as far as Orkney. Isolated treasures of ?Continental origin represent private enterprise, even plundering. | |||
