Description: | A sherd of a Gaulish Samian pottery bowl, probably of mid 2nd to early 3rd century AD date. The form of the remaining piece suggests that it originates from a shallow bowl of Form 18 to 31 (P. Webster; 1996; pp. 32).
Approximately half of the footring survives. It measures 53.1mm in diameter by 7.5mm high. The small remnant of the side of the pot angles upwards from the footring at a shallow angle. The fabric is light pinkish-orange and has no visible inclusions. The slip is dark orangey-brown.
Overall the sherd measures 59.2mm in diameter, 35.4mm wide and 17.1mm high. The weight is 16.5g. | 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: | 150
