Description: | Large fragment of a Samian ware vessel dating from the Roman period. Undecorated bottom sherd with most of the pedestal foot ring still remaining. The originally dark red slipped has turned black/greyish which probably indicates that the vessel was burned. The breaks look worn, but not burned which would indicate that the vessel broke after burning and either during deposition or just before recovery (cliff fall). This sherd joins LANCUM-D5F2F6 which carries the stamp of the potter MALLIAC. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
