Description: | A shard of a Roman black burnished ware vessel. The shard is dark grey in colour, with a rough, granular texture. Slight traces of burnishing can be seen on the outer face alongside faint diagonal lines decorating the upper half of the shard. The fabric is tempered with abundant well-sorted quartz, occasional rounded shale fragments, iron ore and sparse mica, and has many rounded voides, suggesting that it is fabric BB1, produced in south-east Dorset throughout the Roman period.Length: 51.90mm, Width: 42.58mm, Thickness: 6.33mmWeight: 18.65g
