P48<\/strong>
\nThe amphorae and the millstones<\/strong>
\nThe economic and commercial activites of Alba Pompeia are partly known thanks to the finding of
\na big quantity of amphorae, containers used for the transport of the foodstuff, both liquid (oil and
\nwine) and solid (cereals, fish sauce and other sauces). The main parts of the importations came from\u00a0the Padana Plain, from the Istria and the Adriatic coast, from the Aegen area (especially wine), from\u00a0the Mediterranean Asia and from the Iberian Peninsula (wine, sauces, garum and oil).
\nThe imported wine covered only partially the local need. The remaining part was satisfied by the
\nlocal production. The local wine was probably carried from the countryside to the town into wooden\u00a0barrels and traded into amphorae.
\nThe agricolture \u2013 mainly the cereal growing \u2013 is attested by the presence of several parts of the
\nmillstones. These \u2013 composed by a fixed lower part and by a wheel as highest part \u2013 constituted the
\ninstruments to mill the cereals. The smaller ones were manually exploited, the heavier ones thanks
\nto the animal help.<\/p>\n
