Description: | A strap handle from a ceramic jug of probable later 13th to 15th century date. The fragment measures 84mm by 50.8mm by 12.9mm and weighs 95g. The handle has a rectangular cross-section and consistent profile along its length. Part of the internal surface of the jug is also present at one end. The outer surface and sides have been stabbed so that the jug fired consistently (the handle would have been thicker than the vessel's body), and also partly for decoration. The fabric is a reduced mid grey with more oxidised surfaces. It is sandy with rare angular quartz (up to 4mm) and moderate mica flecks. | Subjects: | Jug Strap Handle | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
