Description: | A thin walled body sherd of earthenware (probably Severn Valley Ware) pottery probably either dating to the late Roman (150 ?? 410 AD) or the Medieval Period (1200 ?? 1500). The sherd is very worn and abraded and is probably from the body of a storage jar. The fabric is relatively soft and powdery with a number of angular and sub angular quartz and brown coloured ironstone inclusions. The fabric colour is a mid buff orange and the outer colour is a darker mid orange. Due to the smallness of the sherd the diameter of the vessel cannot be estimated. It measures 16.8mm x 23.8mm x 6.2mm and weighs 2.21 grams. | Subjects: | Severn Valley Ware | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Reavill, Peter - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
