Archaeologists excavating at Drumanagh Fort, north of Dublin, Ireland, have discovered an unprecedented artifact \u2013 an intact Roman jug. Previously, only fragments of Roman vessels had been found, but never a complete vessel. The finds demonstrate the intensity of the local population’s trade relations with the Romans.<\/p>\n
The discovery was made during this year’s excavations, which have been ongoing for five years. Previous seasons have revealed imported goods such as spelt bread, olive oil<\/a>, glass, ceramics and jewellery. The discovered vessel was found upside down next to a large fragment of an amphora, which increases its archaeological significance.<\/p>\n The vessel has been transferred to the National Museum of Ireland, where it will undergo conservation and study of the sediments that may provide information about its contents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":156255,"template":"","class_list":["post-156258","odkrycia-rzymskie","type-odkrycia-rzymskie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/odkrycia-rzymskie\/156258","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/odkrycia-rzymskie"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/odkrycia-rzymskie"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/odkrycia-rzymskie\/156258\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/156255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=156258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
