Description: | A Saxon (early-medieval) rim sherd from an open vessel, with small holes from leached chalk inclusions, with many inclusions also in situ, including some also of flint. The sherd is a crude quadrilateral form with dark-grey surfaces which now have a pitted, slightly crazed quality. The everted rim terminates in a small out-turned bead with a flat panel below. In Winchester this fabric was used in the late Saxon period but as the rim shape is unlike the chalk-tempered wares known from Winchester (Helen Rees pers. comm. November 2010) an earlier date within the early-medieval period is suggested, although an Iron age date cannot be ruled out completely. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
