Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A sherd of ceramic vessel. Probably a sherd of Late Neolithic, possibly Peterborough Ware, or from a Bronze age food vessel. The sherd is to small to determine a more accurate identification as a a greater length of the vessel rim and neck profile would be needed in order to provide a date based on stylistic characteristics. The sherd weighs 13.18g and is 10.42mm thick. The incomplete height of the vessel is 35.49mm. Use of a rim chart suggests that the vessel originally had a diameter of c.100mm and that only c.10% of the rim circumference survives. The outer surface of the sherd is …

Pottery body sherd with an oblique line of single twisted cord-impressed decoration running across the left side of the exterior of the sherd.

This gabbroic fabric and type of decoration are seen on comparable local Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming). Anna Brindley in Cleal and …

Pottery rim sherd from a round-based bowl with a narrowed pointed rim and scratched linear decoration in a random cross-hatched pattern on the exterior.

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Body sherd of Prehistoric grog-tempered earthenware pottery, possibly Iron Age or Beaker Period (Late Neolithic/ Early Bronze Age) in date. It measures 15.01x19.56x7.67mm and weighs 2.6g, and is decorated on one side with a line of indentations, possibly impressed twine. The sherd feels soapy to the touch. The decoration is similar to that used on pottery of the Beaker Period (2000 - 1700 BC), although the fabric does feel quite rough and perhaps more typical of the Iron Age (800 BC - AD 100).
