Description: | Small fragment of a Samian ware vessel dating from the Roman period. Undecorated bottom sherd with some of the pedestal foot ring still remaining. The originally dark red slipped is very worn/abraded and has turned black/greyish in places which probably indicates that the vessel was burned. The breaks look worn, but not burned which would indicate that the vessel broke after burning and either during deposition or just before recovery (cliff fall). This sherd joins two others (see below), one of which carries the stamp of the potter MALLIAC.
