Roman samian bowl
Conjoining samian bowl sherds, form Dr31 A large deep bowl. The centre base is missing but the bowl doesn't appear to have had a very pronounced kick. The fabric is very thick and very pale pink in colour. The slip is thin and worn, originally orange and fairly dull. There is a ring of very coarse rouletting. Eastern Gaulish. Probably a late date.
