This collection showcases some of the resources collected by Archaeology teachers and researchers at the University of Southampton. They all relate to the excavation of the Roman site of Portus and contain images from an exhibition relating to the project.

This video describes some of the archaeological fieldwork that has been taking place at the University of Southampton and University of Cambridge's excavations at Portus, the main port of ancient Rome.

These four images show how the same digital data set collected through polynomial texture mapping, can be modified in the PTM software to highlight different details in the lettering and surface texture on this Roman brick stamp.
