Description: | A medieval ceramic rim and handle fragment. The vessel fragment shows a flattened rolled rim with a single line of impressed dots running along the centre.The handle is handmade and has been attached to the body of the vessel by hand. It is flat and sub-rectangular in section and is uneven in thickness. It has been divided down the middle by a single incised line and there are nusmerous impressed dots over the outer surface. The dots and incision were applied when the clay was leather-hard. The fabric is orange-grey in colour and is fully oxidised. There are frequent well-sorted medium black inclusions with some larger sparse black inclusions and quartz.Vessels with this type of decoration on the handle are generally dated to the 13th to 14th centuries AD.Similar items can be seen on the database: BH-DE6756, DOR-BF9C74.
