Roman samian bowl, decorated
A faint cursive signature (upside-down?), below the decoration, from a mould inscribed before firing, seems to read either ]oicis or ]dicis, retrograde. Neither the name, nor the only surviving motif, a lozenge of the general type Rogers U29-37, suggests a known Lezoux potter, though the fabric suggest origin there. Below the decoration is a double ridge.
Dr 37 is a hemispherical decorated bowl
