ROMAN POTTERY FOUND IN BRITAIN. 41 
The narrow base indicates a late II.—III. Century date. The 
form is common in the castella of the German limes ; e.g. 
Orl, XXVIII., No. 59, Cannstadt, plate VII., 21. 
10. Wide-mouthed Bowl, with carinated bulge. 
Hard grey paste, like stone ware. 
Round the bulge near the angle, four slight girth-grooves ; and half an inch 
below the lip, one girth-groove. 
Cf. Colchester Mus., Gen. Coll., No. 516 and 421. 
Similar bowls from Pocklington and South Ferriby are in Hull 
Museum. 
11. Bowl or Porringer, with straight sides obliquely out-set, 
and a thick angular flange just below the small upright lip. 
Coarse brownish, nearly black fumed ware; very heavy in weight. 
Plate XV. 
(b) Belgic Red and Grey Vessels in imitation of Sigillata. 
12. Neck and Handle of Pitcher,— tall, slender bodied and 
elegantly shaped. 
Fine hard brown-red paste, with pinkish-red slip; the surface polished by 
an up and down motion of the burnisher. 
Flat band handle bent at an acute angle. 
Cf. Koenen, p. 71, IX., 16, Early Empire, and p. 82, XII., 4. 
13. Ewer, oval bodied, with angularly bent, moulded handle 
extending at right angles from the lip; tubular spout 
turned slightly upwards; and ring moulded food. 
Light pinkish red coated, to imitate sigillata. 
A similar example in the Colchester Museum, Joslin Coll., 
No. 618 is of red micaceous paste. The spout is evidently 
imitated from a bronze ewer in the same museum, Gen. 
Collection, No. 108. 
14. Elegant, nearly upright-sided Bowl, with bead lip, a 
slight offset or expansion near the middle, and low 
foot-ring. 
Fine, brown-red paste, polished on the outside, but retaining the ribs of 
turning on the inside. 
The form is that of the silver cups with mask friezes of 
Alexandrian origin, recorded by Prexel, Bonn. Jahrb ., Heft 118,
