Title
Fragment of Samian ware
Description
English: Fragment of decorated Samian ware depicting a naked male figure apparantly clad in a cloak with one arm crossing his body. However, the chest area is a little too wide to belong to just one person, and perhaps it is actually two figures. Unfortunately the vital piece with the head on is missing!

In front and behind the figure(s) is a vertical line of raised joined dots.
The fragment measures 30x33x max6mm and weighs 5.93.

1st/ 2nd century.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Wiltshire
Date between 1 and 200
