Roman samian bowl
2 conjoining samian bowl sherds, form Dr37. Deep pink ware with a matt gloss. There is a small rivet repair hole in the rim band. The moulding is poor and blurred and the ovolo is small. The basal wreath is also a fairly small triple leaf, the outer ones corded. The main figure type is a bull to left (O.1884), with tufts beneath the forelegs. The bull is attacking a bestiarius gladiator (a smaller version of O.1088). This sherd conjoins S382, which was originally u/s.
Dr 37 is a hemispherical decorated bowl
