Disc mouthed flagons
These flagons were made in the 1st - 4th centuries AD in the modern Hertfordshire villages of Much and Little Hadham, where production of this type of pottery took place on an industrial scale. This type of pottery is generally found in a thirty mile radius of it's source, and is a unique find from the East London Roman cemetery.
A mixture of photographs from 2 very busy days on site, with a good group of burials. Next week I’ll get Liz, Will, Tomasz, Ruth and Adrian to write a journal entry each (if I can persuade them), as they all dug particularly interesting burials.
