Specialised Industry
A potter makes pottery. He makes it better than everyone else.The fringes of the Roman Empire were home to some of the more specialist industries. Whereas in the Imperial heartlands industry gradually became a mass-produced system of fabricae and latifundia - urban life dictating the demand for cheap, mass-produced items be high - provinces like Britannia and Egypt maintained their own specialised industries. In Egypt, the best-documented of all the Imperial provinces, the production of high-quality textiles was its speciality. The items were produced to a high-standard using traditional techniques and materials, and exported around the known world. Likewise, in Britannia, excavation continues to unearth unusually large quantities of high-quality pottery, indicating that its production was a speciality of the region.
