Ceramic jar, a container for late Roman hoard IARCH-A94B2E. Described (in Robertson 2000, 392-393 no. 1588 quoting Prigg) as "fragments of a small vase of Durobrivian pottery...Of the vessel that contained them, the only portions recovered were the base, with its narrow foot and half the neck, representing a jar of about half a pint in capacity. It had evidently been broken some time previous to its final discovery; and fragments of it had, no doubt, been carried away in former ploughings, without materially disturbing the contents". Probably Nene valley pottery.
