The rim is 'complex' with a finger-impressed 'pie-crust' pattern along the upper edge of the everted outer rim or flange. The sherd is a light brown colour throughout and the underside has been black-coated. The fabric contains mica, felspar and augite inclusions, which suggests that it is made from gabbroic clay, originating from the Lizard. Similar storage jars have been found at other sites in Penwith, such as Porthmeor, Porth Godrevy and Reawla, which date from the Romano-British period, from the 3rd to the 4th century AD. Quinnell (2004) illustrates an example of a large storage jar from Trethurgy, with a similar pattern on its rim, on page 120, Fig.58, No.102, which dates from the 3rd to the 4th century AD. Carlyon (1985) illustrates a similar example of a rim with finger impressions from a large vessel found at Porthmeor, in Penwith, on page 13, Group 7, No.Pm38, which probably dates from the later period of the site's occupation, c.3rd-4th century AD. -5.636048SW4027PENWITHVESSELCORNWALL2007-12-30T23:26:58ZSOUTH WEST200Ceramic34Octoberfinds 018.jpg160879Anna TyackeAnna Tyacke40204576CORN-828E533ST BURYAN15.77images/atyacke/2011-02-24T13:50:06Z1400ROMAN50.08609414 Pottery rim sherd from a bowl with a 'Cornish flanged' (Quinnell, 2004, p.124) rim. The flange below the rim is pointed and horizontal, but damaged, and angled at about 90 degrees from the body of the bowl. Above and below the flange are recessed grooves which help to define the flange from the body of the bowl. The fabric is is a light browny grey colour throughout and contains mica, felspar and augite inclusions, which suggests that it is made from gabbroic clay, originating from the Lizard. The exterior surface looks as if it was originally black-coated, now mostly worn off, and then burnished. Romano-British, 3rd-4th century AD Carlyon (1985) illustrates a similar example on page 33, in her Group 39d, No.CW 52 from Carwarthen, which dates from the 3rd to 4th century AD. Quinnell (2004) illustrates a similar example from Trethurgy on page 122, Fig.59, No.130, which is dated to c.AD 210-400. -5.636048SW4027PENWITHPOT SHERDCORNWALL2007-12-30T23:23:35ZSOUTH WEST-100Ceramic46Octoberfinds 016.jpg160894Anna TyackeAnna Tyacke51204575CORN-8280784ST BURYAN21.74images/atyacke/2011-02-24T13:50:06Z1200IRON AGE50.08609412Pottery body sherd of a Dressel type amphora (Carl Thorpe pers comm). The sherd is made up of a hard rough fabric, orange in colour throughout, with small mica and dark grey-coloured augite inclusions, and large chunks of quartz. Quinnell (2004) refers to sherds of Dressel Type 1-4 from Trethurgy on page 101, but these are not illustrated but dated from the Late Iron Age to the Roman period.

The upper cordon is about 6 mm thick and the lower one about 8 mm thick. The fabric is a uniform orange to light brown colour throughout, with an oxidised exterior, and looks to be gabbroic as it has inclusions of white felspar and grey augite, as well as mica. The surface of the pot has been burnished during manufacture and there are incised lines above and below the moulded cordons, helping to define them. It is well made and high fired, which suggests that it is Late Iron Age to early Romano-British period in date, circa 1st century BC to 1st century AD. Christie (1978) illustrates a similar example from Carn Euny, Sancreed on page 421, Fig.62, No.88, which is dated from the 1st century BC. Saunders and Harris (CAJ No.21, 1982) illustrate a similar example from Castle Gotha, St. Austell, on page 137, Fig.13, No.35, which is dated to the 1st century AD. -5.636048SW4027PENWITHPOT SHERDCORNWALL2007-12-30T23:16:46ZSOUTH WEST-1500Ceramic41Octoberfinds 012.jpg160888Anna TyackeAnna Tyacke36204573CORN-8261B64ST BURYAN25.2images/atyacke/2011-02-24T13:50:06Z1-1150BRONZE AGE50.08609413Pottery body sherd decorated with a single impressed twisted cord in two lines, with one line running horizontally, parallel to the rim, and the other obliquely at about a 45 degree angle. The surface and core of the sherd have been oxidised to an orangey brown colour. The interior surface of the sherd has been wiped, and there is the impression of the textile used on the surface, probably before reaching the 'leather-hard' stage while drying, in order to remove surface condensation. The fabric looks, from macroscopic investigation, to have mica, white feldspar, and grey augite inclusions, which are typical of the gabbroic clay that is found on the Lizard in Cornwall and used extensively during this period. The style of the decoration makes this sherd comparable to Trevisker ware sherds excavated from the Bronze Age settlement site at Trethellan Farm, Newquay, reported on in Cornish Archaeology No.30 (1991), page 109, Fig.40, No.1, which date it to the Middle Bronze Age c.1500-1150 BC.-5.636048SW4027House of ConstantineNummus (AE 1 - AE 4)STRATFORD ON AVONCOINWARWICKSHIRE2007-12-30T19:38:01ZWEST MIDLANDS16.04350Copper alloy7WAW-7F30B4.jpg160636Angie BoltonAngie BoltonBust facing right, bare-headed, otherwise the details are unclear.204572WAW-7F30B44ALCESTER1.4[ ]images/abolton/2011-02-24T13:21:43Z[VICTORIAE DD NN AVG ET CAE] 'The victories of our lords, Augustus and Caesar'1353ROMAN52.229144Two Victories holding a shield inscribed 'VOT / X / MVLT / X'.Roman coin: nummus of an unknown House of Constantine emperor, minted between 350 and 353 in an unknown mint.
