Description: | A rim and body sherd of a Roman grey or black-burnished ware pot. The vessel has been wheel thrown and the rim is rounded, everted and thickened on the outside. There is a raised moulded cordon where the neck meets the shoulder. There is also a girth groove around the widest part of the body. The fabric is hard, fine and silty with mica inclusions. The fabric is grey with an unoxidized dark grey core, a black exterior surface. The sherd fits together with entry KENT-E30 323. Together they create a vessel that is 99.83mm tall. The rim diameter is 48mm. Black-burnished ware is described on the Potsherd website: http://potsherd.net/atlas/Ware/BB2. It dates to c.120-250 AD.
