Stamped Amphora Handle

Amphora · 160-230 CE
The stamp, although the inscription is somewhat worn and abraded, probably indicates the production of P. Annius Rufinus, who is almost certainly to be connected with the C. Annius Rufinus known from stamps found at ancient Arva (mod. Pena de la Sal), one of the great centers of the amphora trade in Roman Baetica.
