Description: | The sherd is a rim fragment, probably of a jar. The sherds? fabric is quite soft, with a slightly powdery surface. It is a mid grey colour with patches of a mid orange colour, but this does not cover all the surface. There are occasional small voids within the fabric. The sherd is slightly abraded, and weighs 16.2g.
The sherd is probably made from Severn Valley Ware, which has been fired in a reduced atmosphere. It probably dates to early 2nd to 4th centuries (Webster, P 1976 ?Severn Valley Ware: A Preliminary Study? Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society Vol. 94). | 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: | 100
