Ceramics

A couple of recent ceramic finds have been examined by PAS.
The piece on the left is part of a curved roof tile dated AD1200-1700 while the piece on the right is part of a vessel with the same date range.
From the other side you can clearly see on the piece from the vessel (right) a completely different colour. This is because the darker side has been burnt as it is probably part of a cooking pot.
You can read what the Portable Antiquities Scheme said about each piece via the links below.
