Description: | Roman pottery sherd. Rim sherd from an Oxfordshire White Ware mortarium of mid 3rd to 4th C. AD date. The sherd has a double rim forming a characteristic V-shaped protrusion. Only the upper wall of the vessel remains. It indicates that the bowl was shallow (c. 30 degrees). The fabric is pinkish-buff in colour and has large grit inclusions on the inner surface. Generally the fabric appears to be tempered with small black stones and occasional grog. The sherd measures 67.9mm long by 40mm high and 33.7mm wide at the upper part of the rim. It weighs 58.51g. The edges are slightly abraided. | 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: | 250
