Description: | Small decorated fragment of the body of a Roman Samian Ware vessel, probably of East Gaulish manufacture, dating to the mid 1st to 2nd century AD. The decoration consists of a central raised band, with a raised line of dots on either side. Either side of this are a series of dotted, dashed and straight lines, which would have formed part of a larger pattern. The shallow curve of the fragment suggests it probably once belonged to a bowl or similar vessel, but the form of this is difficult to determine. The fabric is mid orange colour with reddish-orange slip.Length: 41.3mm, Width: 42.3mm, Thickness: 6.2mmWeight: 11.5g
