Description: | Roman Samian, mortaria and greyware pottery which identifies a new site in an area of heavy Roman occupation.
The four mortaria sherds weigh 169grams and are a Mancetter fabric with cream body and grey and red grit. This assemblage includes two rim fragments and a body sherd which date to the second to third centuries and a hammerhead rim sherd dating to the third or fourth century.
The Samian weighs 30 grams and is a base sherd of a Drag 31 bowl, dating to 160-200AD. The greyware weighs 32grams and consists of a base and rim sherd. The last piece is a possible late Iron Age or early Roman rim sherd that weighs 20grams and has a brownish/grey body with small quartz inclusions. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
