    A wide range of types, dates and origins of amphorae excavated demonstrate the extensive and changing trading contacts between the centres of the Roman Empire. For example, the vessels from sites excavated by the Trust in different areas of Roman York, comprise one almost complete amphora, some 200 rims, handles and spikes and numerous body sherds, witnessing a wide rage of commercial movement between Roman Hispania, Germania and Britannia.
