Description: | Three Roman ceramic sherds from a shallow bowl or dish dating AD43-410. These three sherds conjoin and form the majority of the base and body and approximately one third of the rim. The bowl has a simple, incurved rim and rounded base. The fabric is coarse sandy with some polycrystalline quartz inclusions. It is oxidised with a thin grey core. The surface is roughly burnished.Amy Thorp and Beth Richardson have studied this vessel and do not recognise the ware and they suggest it may be from a small local production centre or it may be imported. Dimensions: weight: 226g.Identification by Amy Thorp and Beth Richardson, Roman pottery specialists, Museum of London Specialist Services.
