Boka Kotorska 2 Wreck

rpm_boka-kotorska-2-wreckDate: Second Century BCE

Era: Roman Republic

Location: Montenegro Coast

Cargo: predominately Lamboglia 2 amphoras

Boka Kotorska 2 (MN09-AE) consists of a large amphora wreck in relatively good condition. The mound is substantial and there are numerous amphoras lying over but maintaining their stacking pattern. Several areas had many sherds from broken amphoras, while others possessed many amphoras in good condition.

There was no scatter immediately around the site; thus if nets have dragged across it, which they inevitably have, it has not strewn the amphoras to a great degree. Based on the visible amphoras, the majority, if not all, of the cargo is of Lamboglia 2 amphoras. A single amphora was raised for analysis (MN09-0003).
