Description: | Two rim shards from Roman greyware vessels, probably both jars. Both with a hard, sandy, mid-grey fabric, slightly smoother on the outside. Inclusions include fairly sparse fine mica, sparse large grains of white quartz, dark particles (probably of iron ore) and numerous small rounded, fairly irregular voids. The second shard has generally higher numbers of inclusions, but other than that they appear to share a similar fabric type. The first shard has a upright, everted rim, whilst the second has a largely flattened, tapering rim that is only very slightly everted on the outer edge.1. Length: 55.12mm, Width: 30.40mm, Thickness: 15.52mmWeight: 23.13gRim diameter: 18cm2. Length: 33.12mm, Width: 32.11mm, Thickness; 19.06mmWeight: 24.14gFragment too small to take diameter measurement.
