Networks of Exchange and Exploitation: The Distribution of Mancetter-Hartshill mortaria in Roman Britain

该项目提出了一个新的理解的经济罗马不列颠鉴于最新的主导模式发展的罗马帝国。它将研究在一个边境省份开展以媒体为中心的辩论的可行性。这将通过研究Mancetter-Hartshill陶器的分布来实现，Mancetter-Hartshill陶器是一种独特的罗马-英国陶器，为考古记录中不可见的无出处易腐物品的运动提供代理。可以预见，现有的模型将不能提供一个令人满意的解释，一个新的具有国际意义的古代经济学研究模型将产生。

The project proposes a new understanding of the economy of Roman Britain in view of the latestdominant models developed for the Roman Empire. It will examine the feasibility of Mediterraneancentreddebates in a frontier province. This will be achieved through the study of the distribution ofMancetter-Hartshill mortaria, a distinctive type of Romano-British pottery, providing a proxy for themovements of unprovenanced perishable goods invisible in the archaeological record. It is anticipated thatthe existing models will not offer a satisfactory explanation and that a new model of internationalsignificance to the study of Ancient Economics will be generated.
