Fetching coin data
The hoard container had been truncated, presumably by ploughing, leaving only the wall below the girth and the base, with even these shattered and held together entirely by the soil around them. The jar was wheel thrown in a moderately granular brown fabric with a grey to dark grey surface, burnished externally either side of a lattice decoration of burnished lines. The filler consists of grit including some (presumably calcitic) which have leached out leaving voids). Although not Black-burnished Ware, the intention of the potter appears to have been to produce a vessel reminiscent of that fabric. One may assume a local origin.
