A fragment of a copper-alloy cauldron lug of possible Bronze Age date, possibly c. 1200-700 BC in date as suggested by the below arguments. It is also possible that this item dates to the Iron Age or later and this is also discussed below. The remaining fragment is a portion of one of the cauldron's handle loops, but this fragment has broken off from the larger vessel, now missing. The fragment is curved in profile, with three deeply grooved ridges on the outer surface, which have been indented along the centre, suggesting that another element abutted this area. The interior edge of t…

Two fragments of ceramic vessel of probable Bronze Age to Iron Age date (c.1000-1 BC). Both fragments are of a coarse dark brown handmade fabric which has been irregularly fired. The fabric has moderate density of angular well-sorted flint, sand and organic inclusions. Both fragments are body sherds, probably of a large-circumference storage container. The thicknesses suggest they could come from different vessels.

Fragment of a pottery body sherd from a large Bronze Age urn or food vessel. The exterior is undecorated so that dating within the 2nd millennium BC is difficult. The fabric is a gabbroic (clay that weathers over the gabbro stone on the Lizard) with inclusions of pale feslpar, dark augite and mica.The colour of the fabric is a light brown interior to more oxidised orange exterior. The curvature of the upper edge of the sherd suggests that the original diameter of the vessel would have been about 400 mm in diameter. The fabric, thickness and curvature is typical of what is locally term…

Six ceramic sherds, presumed from the same vessel.Prehistoric in date. The fabric is coarse material, dark brown at the core, reduced to pale to mid brown at the interior surface and variable at the surface between pale orange, pale grey, and grey-brown. The fabric contains an occasional sand temper, with rounded quartzite pebbles rare, and occasional angular black, iron-rich grits. Two of the sherds are rim fragment, showing an everted rim above an exterior ridge - this collared rim is consistent with food vessel forms of the Bronze Age period.

Bronze age to Medieval pottery vessel sherds. The pottery appears hand built, has rough fabric with large gritty inclusions and lots of mica. It has a thick section and some sherds have evdience of sooting on the outer? surface. It was found in a very tight scatter disturbed by tractor, near a Bronze Age barrow cemetery. So its probable that it is prehistoric, however pottery such as this is known in the area up to the medieval period.
