Title
A Roman glass rim fragment from a bowl or dish
Description
English: A Roman glass rim fragment from a bowl or dish probably dating AD43-170. There is a separate smaller shard which fits onto the lower edge of this piece. The rim has been constructed by folding the glass over onto itself so the edge lies on the external surface. There is a decorative circumferential groove just above the edge. The small surviving section of wall is plain with no decoration. The glass is pale blue in colour with small air bubbles present.

Allen (1998:23 and 30) illustrates bowls with similar rims which date AD43-70 and AD70-170.

Dimensions: weight: 2.74g.
