Description: | Rim fragment of a cast copper alloy shallow bowl, from the edge of the rim, following the curvature of the body of the bowl and tapering towards the base where it has broken away from the vessel. The curvature in profile shows that the bowl would have only been about 40 mm in depth. The the curvature of the rim in plan suggests that the bowl would have been about 100 mm in diameter.Egan (2005) illustrates a similar example of a bowl fragment with a curved body on page 99, fig.85, no.443, which is dated from c.1550-1600.Ottaway and Rogers (2002) list body fragments of thin cast cooking pots on pages 3113-4, nos.14202-7, which are dated from the mid 16th century to the mid 17th century.Margeson (1993) illustrates a vessel fragment with a similar curvature on page 91, fig.58, no.567A which is dated from the early 16th century.
