Title
Stamped Urn Sherd from Roxby cum Risby
Description
English: Pottery

Urn fragment. Handmade body sherd in a sandy black fabric bearing three adjacent sub-circular stamped impressions of diameter 5mnm, probably made with an improvised bone tool. This sherd was kindly identified by Wallace Collyer of the Community Archaeology Programme; his suggestion of an Anglo-Saxon date was kindly confirmed by Dr Kevin Leahy. The findspot lies away from known burial sites of this period; the Sheffield's Hill cemetery being the nearest known. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 450-600.

Length: 23.9mm, Width: 15.4mm, Thickness: 6.2mm, Weight: 2.86gms.
