Commentary
Fragment of a ceramic vessel, probably an handle of a pitcher.
The fabric of the sherd is burnished wheel pottery, produced on a slow wheel; medium-fine clay from red brown to dark grey in colour, with a moderate temper of fine grained sand and cast gold. The fragment indicates an oxidation/reduction firing. Reinforced applied rim cordons appear.
On vertical position outside of the handle fragment could be observed characters which were identified as Roman letters by Franz (Kasseroler 1957: 79).
The potsherd was found at the raetic settlement Himmelreich. From 1953 to 1955 the here located raetic settlement was investigated by Dr. Alfons Kasseroler. The ceramic fragment was found in striking distance to the post-holes and stairs at the southern side of the circular wall, excavated in 1954. In Kasseroler 1957: 102, the find number M 619 is given.
