2 conjoining samian bowl sherds, form Dr37. The sherds are extremely thick and coarse and a deep pink ware with a fairly good red glaze. The moulding is very blurred and careless. There is a large arch on striated columns, the arch composed of a leafy festoon upsidedown and the tassels part of the stamp. The design shows Diane and a hind (Oswald 104). There is no obvious bow but it might have been cut off in the finishing as the trimming has cut off even a part of Diane's feet! There is a groove below the design. This piece is late, possibly Trajanic.
Dr 37 is a hemispherical decorated bowl
