Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Pottery
Bodysherd of shell-tempered fabric, possibly from a hand-made vessel. The inner surface is black; the outer surface is oxidised to a pale orange-buff colour. The diameter of the vessel, at least where this sherd comes from, would be about 140mm. Despite the coarse fabric, there is no sign of external sooting, and therefore no evidence that this was from a vessel used as a cooking pot. Sandra Firth kindly examined this sherd, suggesting a possible Roman date. Suggested date: Later Iron Age to Early Roman, -300 to 200.
Length: 43.19mm, Thickness: 8.7mm, Weight: 18.04gms.
