Description: | A rim sherd of Roman samian ware, probably from a steep-sided bowl or cup, possibly similar to a Dragendorff type 33 (P.Webster, 1996, p.45) vessel. The fabric is light pinkish-orange and has a dark reddish-brown slip. It is most likely to have come from southern Gaul and probably dates from the 1st or 2nd century AD. The sides are slightly convex and there is a transverse groove near the lowest point of the outer face. The sherd is relatively unabraded and measures 42.2mm long by 29.4mm wide and 6.3mm thick. It weighs 9.18g.
