Description: | Single sherd of Roman mortarium (broken into two pieces). The fragment is made of a fairly fine pale yellowy-orange fabric, probably pipe clay.

The fragment weighs 10.9g and measures 43.4mm in length, 26.6mm in width and 8.06mm in thickness | 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: | 1
