Source text - English "Amphorae have been studied intensively and have been inventoried and cataloged. Studying the different catalogs and comparing them to the pottery on our site, we can get a better idea of what we are working with. Roman pottery had different trends and fashions just like we have nowadays. Some types of pottery were in production for 300 years, but others only for fifty. Also, the lack of a certain type of pottery can be just as indicative as the pottery found on a given site. For example, there was a major trend in Roman pottery, which is called Terra Sigillata, or more commonly known as Samian ware. It was extremely popular and exported all over the Roman Empire. It began production in the las part of the first century BC. It is common ware pottery with a lush red varnish on the outside. We have found many pieces in the Roman city of Sanisera; however, we have almost finished the excavation of the Roman military fort without finding a single piece. We know from classical sources that the military fort was established in 123 BC. From the lack of Terra Sigillata, we know that it was abandoned before it started production and exportation in the last part of the first century BC."
Translation - Spanish “Las ánforas se han estudiado en profundidad y han sido clasificadas y catalogadas. Estudiando los diferentes catálogos y comparándolos con la cerámica de nuestra excavación, podemos hacernos una idea mejor de con qué estamos trabajando. La cerámica romana tuvo modas y tendencias, como hoy en día. Algunos tipos de cerámica se produjeron durante 300 años mientras que otros sólo durante 50. Además, el hecho de no encontrar un tipo de cerámica en un lugar determinado nos aporta tanta información como si sí la encontráramos. Por ejemplo, hubo una tendencia importante en cerámica romana que llamamos Terra sigillata, o TS, para simplificar; era muy popular y se exportaba por todo el
Imperio Romano. Empezó a producirse en la última parte del primer siglo a.C. Es cerámica normal con un barniz rojizo muy llamativo por el exterior. Hemos encontrado muchas muestras de éstas en la ciudad romana de Sanisera; sin embargo, casi hemos terminado de excavar el fuerte militar romano sin encontrar ni un trozo. Gracias a las fuentes clásicas sabemos que el fuerte se estableció en 123 a.C. Como no hay Terra Sigillata sabemos que lo abandonaron antes de que ésta empezara a producirse y exportarse a finales del primer siglo a.C.”

Source text - English I stared at him aghast, and then hotly told him that I did not have "hongos"! I had learned that word very well in Mexico, mushrooms... the kind you eat. I love mushrooms and, therefore, was sure of the word. I learned the word from my text book in the chapter dealing with the vocabulary of fruits and vegetables. So, when I heard the word "hongos", the image of a perfect mushroom that I would put on a salad or pizza popped into my head. Definitely not what I had.
Translation - Spanish ¡Yo le miré horrorizada y acaloradamente le dije que de ninguna manera tenía hongos! Había aprendido esa palabra perfectamente en México, hongos... los que se comen. Me encantan los champiñones y por eso estaba tan segura del significado de la palabra. Aprendí la palabra en mi libro de texto, en el capítulo sobre fruta y verdura. De modo que cuando oí la palabra hongos, la imagen de un champiñón perfecto, de los que yo usaría en una ensalada o en una pizza me vino a la cabeza. Definitivamente no era lo que yo tenía.
