Description: | Two cast lead alloy vessel repairs (pot mends) of either Roman (50-400) or Medieval date (1200-1500). Both repairs are incomplete however one is more fragmentary than the other. They are both irregular in shape; in plan being broadly oval and H shaped in cross section. The mends are relatively thick with the outer face being even and neat, the inner surface more irregular. Neither mend has the remnants of the pottery vessel attached. These types of mend were used within both the Roman and Medieval period; however, as the site which these were found on has produced more Roman material then it is probable that they are Roman in date.
The vessel repairs measure:
1. 30.8mm length, 20.6mm width is 8.1mm thick and weighs 19.01 grams
2. 20.7mm length, 20.2mm width is 9mm thick and weighs 5.75 grams | Subjects: | Pot Mend Repair | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Reavill, Peter - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
