Features the archaeological findings from key ports throughout the Indian Ocean - the Red Sea, South Arabia, the Gulf and India - to offer a picture of the relations between East and West. This work focuses on ordinary artefacts that uncover a network of Romans, Arabs, Sasanians and Indians who participated in the trade.

Mortarium studies have enormous value in addressing a variety of themes including source, chronology, function, distribution, and as an index to trade and Romanisation. This comprehensive volume, commissioned by English Heritage, provides an over-view of mortarium studies for England, Scotland and Wales.
