Description: | Rim sherd, probably from a cooking pot of mid to late 1st century AD date. The rim is rounded on top and angles up at approximately 45 degrees on its outside, in order to form a lid seat. On its underside the rim angles back into the body of the pot and there is a noticeable, although not sharp, break between the two elements. The upper side of the pot angles inwards gradually, suggesting a rounded rather than angular vessel. The fabric is mid orangey-brown in colour and is grog-tempered. The edges are largely unabraded.
The sherd measures 31.5mm in length, 35.3mm in height, it is 15.5mm wide at the rim and 7.3mm thick. It weighs 15.15g. The projected internal diameter of the rim is 320mm. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 50
