Description: | A ceramic mortarium rim sherd. The fabric is hard with a fine texture. The vessel has a light yellow core, pink margins and the surfaces are an off-white colour. Only a fragment of the rim flange remains. The sherd is abraded and is only a fragment of the complete vessel. It weighs 4g. The sherd was possibly made at Mancetter, Warwickshire. Mortaria from Mancetter dates to the 2nd to 4th centuries (Tyers, P. 1996 'Roman Pottery in Britain' Routledge; p.123). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
