Description: | A rim sherd from a Roman mortarium vessel. The sherd is from an Oxford White-ware mortarium and is similar in profile to Young's (2000) type M17 (nos 2 and 7 are the most similar). This style of mortaria fall's into Young's Period 3 and dates from c. AD 240-300. There is a linear groove running around the external edge of the flange. Some of the trituration grits are visible in the internal wall of the vessel. When complete, the vessel would have had a diameter of c. 38cm.
