Title
64A572
Description
English: A body sherd of London-Essex Stamped Ware. This distinctive type of pottery was classified by W.Rodwell in his study of 'Stamp-Decorated Pottery of the Early Roman Period in Eastern England' and is given a late first- to early second-century AD date range.

This particular fragment, although somewhat worn, is in a typical oxidised orange/reddish brown hard fine fabric with slight laminar fractures. The core is a buff/brown colour. It is tempered with fine sand. Also present are sparse specs of dark-red coloured ironstone and mica platelets are also evident. Probable traces of a fine slip remain. The external surface was probably burnished, the internal surface was not.

The form was a cylindrical beaker with pedestal base and projecting flange which was wheel thrown. The sherd is decorated with grooves and with ring stamp impression (R.3) with 11mm rings, and a block stamp which is probably a derivative of die (B.2) (Rodwell 1978).

The ware was manufactured in the potteries in Little and Much Hadham on the Herts/Essex borders with a distribution mainly in the Lower Thames basin.

Dimensions: Width: 51mm. Height: 42mm. Thickness: 3.5mm. Weight: 10 grams.
