?:scopeNote	Classed as 'contenitori cilindrici della tarda eta imperiale' (cylindrical containers of the late Imperial period: Manacorda, 1977a: 171ff.), these fall typologically between the amphorae of the Africana Grande series and the larger cylindrical African amphorae of the later fifth/sixth centuries. Keay distinguishes 30 variations (for full details see Keay, 1984: 184-212), but gathers together the most common ones (variants A-V) in three main sub-types.The third sub-type is characterised by a simply thickened and bent rim. The neck is conical and very elongated, while the attached handles are tall, ear shaped and elliptical in section. The amphora has a cylindrical body with narrow base terminating in an elongated cylindrical, gently pointed, spike. Stamps seem to be rare. There is at least one case of epigraphic stamp: three incised letters (tria nomina?) on the neck from Tarragona (Remola, 2000). (en)
