Title
19 Roman Black Burnished ware vessel sherds
Description
English: An assemblage of 19 sherds of ceramic Black Burnished ware dating to the period c. AD 43 - 410. The assemblage comprises 7 rim sherds, 6 body sherds and 6 base sherds. Two of the rim sherds exhibit an incomplete flanged rim. The other five sherds all exhibit beaded rims. The fabric is black - dark grey in colour on most pieces. Some pieces exhibit a lighter grey core. The fabric exhibits frequent white/grey coarse sandy inclusions. Six pieces in the assemblage exhibit a buff-pink coloured fabric caused by oxidisation during firing. Several of the pieces exhibit traces of burnishing, however it is not possible to state the extent of coverage.
