Amphora replica of the Roman ones of the Dressel Catalan type. The start of their production dates back to the Augustus period of the 1st century BC, and they were used until the 2nd century AD. They were made in the western Mediterranean region in the workshops of the Mediterranean north coast of Hispania (nowadays Cataluña and the Ebro valley), and they would be produced in the kilns of the main Roman cities of the area, like Barcino and Tarraco (nowadays Barcelona and Tarragona), although this type of amphorae were later copied in Roman provinces further east.
The use of this type of amphora was widespread throughout all the western provinces of the Mediterranean, mainly for locally produced wine, but some examples have been found with hazelnuts or olives, found in a shipwreck in Cavalière (Pompeii).
