ROMAN POTTERY FOUND IN BRITAIN. 
Grey vessels of similar ornamentation to Castor ware were 
made in Belgium and Germany and are met with in the Rhine 
provinces (Dechelette, II., p. 311), and vessels with enamel or 
vitreous glaze of a malachite green colour.

On the red glazed wares ( terra sigillata) it first appears in the 
form of a leaf with tendril (variously described as ivy leaf, cordi- 
form leaf, lotus bud, with stalk) on the surface of the wide rims of 
shallow bowls (forms 35, 36, 42) in the second half of the I. 
Century, being found in the Andernach graves with coins of 
Claudius (A.D. 41—54) and in the burnt layer of Neuss destroyed 
A.D. 69.

The early well-baked glossy bowls represented at York were 
made at La Granlesenque and Lezoux only, and at Lezoux 
barbotine was employed to form the tufts of foliage which separate 
the moulded and applied figures on vases of globular and ovoid 
shape (forms 54 and 72) illustrated on Plate IV., 4, which belong 
to the III. Century.

Bowls, form 35, and two handled cups, form 9, made at Lezoux. 
are represented among the specimens obtained by dredging over 
the Pudding-Pan Rock, Whitstable, described by Mr. Reg. Smith, 
Pvoc. Soc. Antiq ., London , Vol. XXI. (1907), fig. opp. p. 279, 4, 5,6, 
and p. 6, fig. 1. 
At Rheinzabern ( Tres Tabeviuc, in Germania Superior ), from the 
middle of the II. Century to about A.D. 260, when the potteries 
were destroyed, the same kind of ornament was applied in still 
greater richness and variety to vases of similar shape and also to 
upright-sided bowls ( deversoria ), form 45, bowls with wide over¬ 
turned rims, form 43, and large two-handled drinking cups (can- 
thari ), form 53, but no examples were observed at York, except a 
much rubbed fragment of the latter.
