A wooden keg or circular box of yew wood held together with iron staves with bronze fittings. One of three containers for the Dorchester hoard found in 1936 (IARCH-5E5FEF). Thought to be about 10 inches in diameter and 8 inches high.
The container has been fully published by P. Pugsley (2002). She emphasises the unique and decorative design of this object, apparently purpose-built as a money box, which would equally have functioned as an attractive item of furniture.

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.
