Title
Roman Bowl: Colour coated or imitation Samian ware sherd
Description
English: Pottery Colour Coated Ware imitating Samian, body sherd from a bowl with moulded barbotine decoration of palm and other leaves or feather patterns in a compartment framed by pellets, with adjacent panels occupied by similar but uncertain motifs. The fabric is pale buff with a dull brick red slip inside and out. Members of the North Lincolnshire Pottery Research Group kindly suggest this to be a Nene Valley Colour-Coated Ware (NVCC) with a date range of 2nd to 3rd century, which would be of interest as the imitation of Samian wares is thought to have been centred elsewhere in Britain. This reporter considers the rigorous conventional features of the decoration must dictate a date in the earlier part of the available range. Suggested date: Early Roman, 100-200.

Weight: 18.97gms.
