Roman pottery beaker
Buff ware. The earlier examples are frequently rough-cast, but none of the Holt examples in ordinary ware is so treated. The lower part of the example figure is slipped and burnished, the upper portion being of plain ware. This form is analogous to late first-early second century beakers such as Wroxeter, i, Fig. 18, 36 (a large specimen - 80 - 110 or 120 A.D.) ; Brecon Gaer, C51 (late first century). Three examples.
