The material dealt with in the first section of this paper can only be called ‘recent’ in a secondary sense. It is not so much a discovery as a rediscovery of old evidence long overlooked.

page 228 note 2 The originals in the Guildhall Library are in pencil on yellow tracing-paper, and cannot therefore be satisfactorily photographed. The figures published herewith are reproduced from ink tracings. I did not learn till these tracings were being made that Mr. Norman and Mr. Reader had already taken some steps towards the publication of the Gardner set. I have to thank them for very generously waiving the claim to priority of publication, which their work on Roman London undoubtedly gave them.

page 239 note 1 In this and subsequent lists the ‘Samian’ shapes are of course numbered according to the standard classification of Dragendorff. The figure 15* represents the early shallow plate with round moulding (Viertelrundstab) inside. The normal type is better shown in Curie, Newstead, pl. xxxix, 2, or in Ritterling, Hofheim, 1913, pl. xxxi, 4, than by Dragendorff. Many variations occur of the external horizontal flutings in this shape.

page 242 note 1 Mr. Lyell was kind enough to examine material from Pits E 23 and F 20 at St. Martin's-le-Grand. The general appearance of each suggested an accumulation of surface rubbish containing sand, pebbles, lumps of burnt clay, charcoal, &c, and showed evidence of infiltration of iron, giving the soil a more or less reddish appearance. The specimen from Pit E contained several lumps of burnt clay, a piece of coarse pottery, a fragment of oyster shell, several small pieces of oak, elder, and hazel charcoal, and a few seeds of elder, a sedge (Carex), and a grain of wheat, also a few minute bones. Pit F specimen contained a small fragment of Samian ware, a toe-bone of a pig, a tiny fragment of oyster (?) shell, oak charcoal, and a single grain of wheat.

page 245 note 1 Of course, it is always possible that some of the pits which produced insufficient or no evidence of date may have been dug at a later date than the second century.
page 246 note 1 The impressions are faint, and any of the Cs may be a G. Prof. Haverfield reads the first EC- P AC A (Roman Britain in 1914, p. 35), but after very careful examination I believe the strokes that appear to form E to be accidental.
page 256 note 1 Of decoration, only part of circumference of a medallion remains.
page 256 note 2 Cinnamus. Part of two panels remains. One contained a medallion, but the figure it contained is gone. Small circle in corner. The other contains a figure of Athena (Déch. 77). Name vertically up side of panel, retrograde.
