Large earthenware jar amphora of the Lusitanian type scaled down to a smaller size. These amphorae date back to between the 3rd and 5th century AD, and were originally made in the kilns in the different areas of what is now Portugal, although they may have also been produced in workshops in southern Spain, in Baetica (Andalusia). It is thought that they were distributed mainly in the Eastern part of the Iberian Peninsula but since only small fragments of these amphorae have been found, confirmation is needed to discover whether they could have been used in more areas or whether there are other amphorae with a similar shape produced in other places. There is no evidence proving what they were used for but they are believed to have been used for carrying fish stock and because some pieces have been found with Christian symbols on them like palm leaves, they may also have been used for carrying wine.
