Title
A Early Medieval Anglo Saxon Urn body Sherd
Description
English: A body sherd from the shoulder of an Early Medieval, Early Anglo Saxon pottery vessel with stamp decoration. The dark brown fabric has about twenty percent poorly sorted sub-rounded quartz grain filler. Two stamp dies have been used, a plain die and a complete whorl design. There are also two incised circumferencial lines below the stamps. As decorated pottery is rare on settlement sites, it is possible that this sherd came from an urn.
