Ceramic vessel
Comment
The container survives as the complete base and lower body circuit with occasional non-conjoining body sherds; from a closed vessel of unknown form in sandy textured parchment coloured ware. It was probably made somewhere in the New Forest potteries in the second half of the third or fourth centuries AD.
For its full surviving height, the inside surface is coated with copper corrosion indicating that the pot was much more complete at the time of burial and contained a lot of coins. The upper body and rim were presumably lost as a result of plough damage or similar disturbance which cut-off the top but left the base upright and in situ.
