Description: | Pottery rim sherd of Roman date. The sherd is from a Dressel 18 southern Gaulish bowl of the late 1st C. AD. The piece has a simple turned rim which protrudes little from the body of the vessel. There is a sharp break between it and the outer wall of the pot. The sides of the vessel are stepped. The upper side forms an angle of approximately 45 to 60 degrees, whilst the lower side (of which there is only a remnant) forms a shallow angle of 10 to 20 degrees. The fabric is light pinkish-orange in colour and has few visible inclusions. It has a dark reddish-brown slip. The sherd measures 19.8mm wide by 30.6mm high and 4.5mm thick. It weighs 3.78g.
