Description: | Roman fragment of samian ware / terra sigillata. The fabric is pinkish, with a fine matrix and no visible inclusions. There is very little slip remaining on the sherd, but what remains appears to be orangey-brown. The vessel itself was almost certainly mould-decorated and open. The decoration is very worn but appears to comprise parts of a figurative motif, a solid panel border and a section of a medallion or scroll. These are slight and fine, but numerous. The fabric and slip seem to point to East Gaulish manufacture.
