Title
LANCUM-D80EC7: Early Roman fragment of Samian ware vessel
Description
English: Small rim fragment of a Samian ware vessel dating from the Roman period. Decorated rim sherd with ovolo (egg-and-tongue-frieze) border. Dragendorff Form 37. The originally dark red slip is very worn/abraded and has turned black/greyish in places, looking charred, which probably indicates that the vessel was burned. The breaks look worn, but not burned which would indicate that the vessel broke after burning and either during deposition or just before recovery (cliff fall). This sherd comes from the same vessel as at least ten other sherds (see below). The decoration of the vessel consists of a row of arches, held up by small female figures. A dancing female is placed under one arch, while the other shows a naked male winged figure. This fragment only shows the ovolo border which is composed of smaller arches terminating in five/six-pointed stars.
