Description: | Base of Roman pottery vessel of probable 1st C. AD date. Only remnants of the sides of the vessel remain and it is difficult to ascertain the form, although the wide angle of these sides suggests that the base was significantly narrower than the main body of the pot. The pot is wheel thrown and there is evidence for a foot ring below the base. The fabric is mainly mid-grey in colour, except for the underside of the base where it is reddish-orange. The temper material is grog and sand. The edges are fairly abraided.
It measures 47.1mm diameter, by 13.5mm thick. Weight = 30.45g. | 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: | 43
