Description: | A large rim fragment of a hemispherical bowl with almost horizontal reeded rims, weighing 40.2g. This vessel is undecorated. This vessel would have had a diameter of approximately 230mm. The rim proper extends at a right angle away from the main body of the vessel and as the name suggests it has a drooping reeded flange. The surviving sherd suggests that the vessel would have been straight sided. The sherd is a mottled mid yellowish-brown colour. The sherd is relatively un-worn but the breaks look worn and slightly abraded. Much of the vessels original surface has been lost. This type of vessel roughly dates from the Neronian period to well in the Flavian period (c. 54 ? 200) and they are likely to be imported. Parallels can be seen in Cunliffe, 1971, pp194-7, Fig. 92. | 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: | 54
