ROMAN POTTERY FOUND IN BRITAIN. 
47 
g. Shallow Bowl (form 16). 
In the centre is the stamp OF ARRI. The form of vessel and name of the 
potter are both of rare occurrence. ARRI occurs at Nimes and Tarraco, but 
not elsewhere; ARRVSF at ITofen and Wurtemburg, with coins from Trajan 
to Severus, a.d. 98-211, Bonn. Jahrb. 99 (1896), p. 54. ARRO occurs at London 
and Exeter, and twice at Wilderspool (ARRONISM), but is referable to a 
different potter. 
10. Fragment of Bowl (form 31). 
In the centre is a portion of the potter’s stamp OFMON (uncertain). On 
another fragment of a similar vessel is part of a stamp (OF)CEN, (Censor) a 
Rutenian potter. The form begins to make its appearance at the end of the 1st 
century. Walters’ Cat., xxxvii. m 628-633, &c ; Koenen, p. 92, XIV. 4-5, frequent 
in the burnt layer of Neuss, a.d. 70; the moulding on the outer lip is wanting 
on similar bowls of the Antonnie period (a.d. 140-100). 
11. Bowl (form 31). 
In the centre is the stamp PATRIC (Patricus), a Rutenian potter of the 
earlier period, a.d. 16-80, whose name occurs frequently, in consequence, both 
in this country and on the Continent. Walters’ Cat., xxxviii. m 923, &c. ; 
Dechelette, I. p. 294. 
12. Bowl (form 31). 
In the centre is the stamp SECVNDINI-M (Secundinus) a potter of Lezoux, 
who produced ornamental bowls of form 37, with decoration in panels, and 
belongs to the second period, a.d. 75-110. Dechelette, I., p. 298. 
14. Shallow Vessel of unusual form. 
With upright sides and base ascending evenly to the centre where it is only 
quarter of an inch below the brim. The border of the conical base is marked 
by an off-set or plain moulding, both inside and outside, and round the edge of 
the rim is a girth-groove. In the centre is the stamp MASCLVS (Masclus or 
Masculus), a Rutenian potter, who exported bowls of the form 27, during the 
period a.d. 16-80, Dechelette, I., p. 284 ; Walters’ Cat., xxxvi., m 666, &c. 
15. Shallow Bowl, form as Ludowici Tg. 1400. Walters’ Cat., 
form 79 or 80. 
In the centre is the stamp partly obliterated CL • MEN * (Clemens) a potter 
of Westerndorff, in Vindelicia, where potteries were established from about 
a.d. 150 to 250. C.I.L. Vol. III., 65. 
16. Bowl (form 51), Ludowici Tc. 1670. 
The form occurs at Pfiinz, one of the castella of the German limes, No. 73, 
ORL, XIV., plate VI., d 51, Teller 7a, and the vessel is probably of German 
fabric. 
17. Dish (form 22). Arretine fabric. 
Hard dark-red lustrous glaze, moulding at rim and foot, girth-grooves round 
the centre, and carefully turned raised undersurface are indications of early 
date. One example occurs at Neuss, NOVAESIUM, p. 334, plate XXVI. 26, 
a.d. 25-105. The form assigned to the middle period of the Roman Empire 
(a.d. 100-250) by Koenen, XVI. 28b.
