Cooking pot
Comment
A hand-made cooking pot, with wheel-finished shoulder and rim, Gillam type 146, in typical Black Burnished Ware Category 1 (B.B.1). The obtuse-angled lattice decoration had been burnished onto a deliberately roughened background. It is a typical late third to fourth century product of potteries sited in the Isle of Purbeck, Dorset. Most of the damage occurred at the time of its discovery, but a complete rim and body circuit could be reconstructed. Significantly, the base was very thin and it could scarcely have survived any usage; it may have been sold as a 'second', for use other than a cooking pot. The jar was almost certainly new when it was deposited.
