^{page 52 note 3} At first the pottery in this layer was kept separate according to depth, but the attempt was given up as useless, since pottery of different dates was hopelessly mixed. Early and late Samian occurred together at all depths, and in one instance late pieces were found at the base of the deposit.

^{page 60 note 3} In this connexion mention may be made of the bronze head of Hadrian, recovered from the Thames near London Bridge, and fragments of statues found between the Basilica and the river (R.C.H.M. Roman London, 44, 121). The burning of the Forum and Basilica in the second century (or later) would readily account for this shattering of official statuary. Critical study of the fragments, such as Mr. I. A. Richmond has made of other bronzes (Antiq. Journ. xxiv, 5), might give interesting results.

^{page 60 note 4} In the early years of Hadrian's reign there was trouble in Britain, and the Ninth Legion met with disaster (Collingwood and Myres, Roman Britain and the English Settlements (1936), 129). Apparently there was a rising of the northern tribes, but the area affected may well have been far away from London. Moreover, the date (117 or a few years later) is too early, if the evidence of burnt Samian can be relied on to indicate a date for the fire within and not before the decade c. 120–30. The suggestion that the London fire may have been connected with the unsettled state of the province about this time is perhaps worth mentioning, even if only to be dismissed.

^{page 61 note 1} Recent evidence on the date of the Roman Town Wall is summarized by Mr. F. Cottrill in his chapter in London Wall through Eighteen Centuries (1937). In an excavation made since then the Wall is dated later than c. A.D. 115–25; Wall and fire thus belong to the same period, and it is really a case of doubt as to which came first. Interim reports on excavations of the Forum and Basilica are in J.R.S. xxi, 236; xxv, 215; xxvi, 254.

In the B.M. are several fragments of burnt Samian of early date from London, but without precise localities. The numbers in Walters, Catalogue of Roman Pottery, are M 245, 296, 685, 727, 875, 1008, 1016, 1018, 1019, and 1020.

^{page 62 note 1} In the B.M. are about 20 fragments of burnt Samian of this date from London, but without precise localities. The numbers are M 1171, 1191, 1193, 1442, 1522, 1526, 1602, 1617, 1701, 1871, 1881, 2043, 2105, 2125, 2127, 2196, and 2229.
