Description: | Small, very worn wall sherd, probably dating from the Roman period, i.e. c. AD43-410. It has inclusions which are light coloured clear glassy grains (quarz) and oval/spherical voids (oolite or limestone) as well as dark coloured black grains (poss. black iron ore). Its hardness is soft/hard (can just be scratched with fingernail) and its texture irregular. The percentage of inclusions is frequent/profuse. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Boughton, Dot - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
