Roman Finds from Non-Roman Sites in Scotland: More Roman 'Drift' in Caledonia

Abstract

In the Journal of Roman Studies , vol. iii, 1913, 73 ff., and vol. xxii, 1932, 99 ff., the late James Curle published two papers on ‘Roman and Native Remains in Caledonia’ and ‘Roman Drift in Caledonia’, in which he discussed with his usual acuteness the significance of Roman objects found on non-Roman sites in Scotland. The second paper, ‘Roman Drift in Caledonia’, was offered as a tribute to Sir George Macdonald, and it was in appreciation of the outstanding achievements of these two scholars that the present paper was submitted to the new journal Britannia .
