Finds from North YorksSaved Search [cached]ROMAN Vessel : YORYM-14F465- September 5, 2008 A sherd from a locally made Calcite Gritted Ware vessel, possibly used for storage and cooking. The sherd probably comes from the base of the neck of the vessel, where it would have met the body. It is decorated with two grooves on the outer edge. The material is brown in colour, slightly darker on the outside (perhaps from cooking use) and the calcite inclusions are mostly missing.http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_obj.php?type=finds&id=236434 ROMAN Vessel : YORYM-14E9C2- September 5, 2008 A rim sherd from a locally made Calcite Gritted Ware vessel, possibly used for storage and cooking.

Closest to the terminal this is slightly flattened, however after a few centimetres it becomes rounded in section before again becoming flattened, presumably prior to the second terminal which has now been lost. The surviving terminal consists of a seperate piece of metal, thinner in the middle, folded in half and then riveted on to the end of the bracelet to form a loop. The bracelet is heavily...http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_obj.php?type=finds&id=236414 ROMAN VESSEL : YORYM-029B75- September 4, 2008 A small fragment of Roman Cranbeck Ware from the rim of a vessel, possibly a bowl or mortarium.

The object is very roughly round in shape. On the front surface it is decorated with two moulded flowers, a smaller one overlying a larger one, with a circle in the very centre. One the reverse, in the centre, the remains of an attachment rivet may be seen. The metal is dark brown-grey and fairly erroded.http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_obj.php?type=finds&id=236335 POST MEDIEVAL JEWS HARP : YORYM-026062- September 4, 2008 A Jews Harp made of copper-alloy. The head and the two prongs all have the characteristic lozenge shaped cross-section. The inner surfaces appear to have been filed resulting in a series of marks on the surface of the harp. Whether this was done on the outer surfaces is hard to determine as these show the greatest evidence of errosion. The rabbet from the tongue survives on one side of the head. The tongue is missing, so iron corrosion survives in the rabbet. The two prongs have been bent out...http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_obj.php?type=finds&id=236334 POST MEDIEVAL BUCKLE : YORYM-025457- September 4, 2008 Cast copper-alloy sub rectangular shoe buckle, dating to c.1690-1720. Only the frame of the buckle remains, this appears to have holes drilled through each longer side which would have originally held a seperate spindle. This, the pin and the chape have now both been lost. The frame is slightly curved. It is roughly rectangular in shape, with curved corners. It has two larger moulded knops in the centre of each longer side, which extend round to the reverse of the frame. Extending all the way...http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_obj.php?type=finds&id=236333 |
