Garum Under the Beach
Portrait
Under the beachfront lie the salting tanks and four amphora kilns of the Finca del Secretario, a Roman works that made garum for the little port of Suel from the first century AD and kept going into the fifth. On the fifteenth of October 1810 some four hundred and fifty-seven Polish and French defenders of Sohail Castle routed an Anglo-Spanish landing and took its commander prisoner; Lord Blayney's sabre is in Kraków.
