Early Iron Age to Late Iron Age: Ceramic Vessel |
||
| Description |
English: A bodysherd/fragment of a handmade ceramic vessel.
The sherd is 5.85mm thick and weighs 2.5g. There is a probable fingernail impression mark as decoration. The sherd probably dates to the Middle to Late Iron Age period (c.-500 BC to c.100 AD). Like most other types of pottery, prehistoric pottery is dated using fabric type, form types, decoration and rim shapes. With decoration, the sherd could date from the Early Iron Age (c. -800 BC), if not earlier. As little prehistoric pottery has been published from the Warwickshire area, the dating of this material is broad, relying on material published from surrounding areas such as the Cotswolds. The fabric is similar to that published as SH1 (Standard common fossil shell type) in McSloy 2006, p 38, dated to Middle to Late Iron Age (500 BC to 100 AD). Sherd specific details: Fabric type: frequent fossil shell type Sherd type: bodysherd Wall thickness: 5.85mm Firing condition: oxidised exterior, unoxidised core, oxidised interior Hardness: hard Feel/Texture: rough Decoration: one fingernail impression on the exterior. Condition of sherds: slightly abraded Sherd/fragment photographed. Reference: Coleman, L., Hancocks, A., and Watts, M. 2006 Excavations on the Wormington to Tirley Pipeline, 2000.
