  • Groundwell Ridge Villa Analysis Project
    Groundwell Ridge Villa Analysis Project. Pr 3641 April 2008 (Update 7) One of the most fundamental elements for the understanding of any archaeological site must be the pottery finds, and Groundwell Ridge was no exception. As a result of the site’s heavy disturbance by early stone robbers and the later attempted road construction, pottery was one of the first ways that we could ‘spot-date’ some of the elements of the building. Once we had a basic chronology for the site, educated guesses could be made about the phasing of the structure. A stamp on the base of a Samian vessel from the potter ‘Reburrus’ who worked in the Central Gaulish potteries around 145 -175 AD A large variety of pottery was recovered from the site of all types and of all dates within the Roman Period. The pottery can be initially divided into two basic types which are, Finewares and Coarsewares. Finewares include the well known red hued Samian Ware which was the ‘best’ pottery for use for serving and on the table. The second category is the Coarsewares which were the everyday pottery of the non-villa owning populace, or in the context of a villa, probably the pottery that would have been used for food preparation, cooking, or storage. The individual styles of decoration found on the fineware have very limited life spans, much like some of today’s designs and from these we can not only tell the date it was made, but also where in the Empire it came from, and if you are very lucky, sometimes a fragment is found that has the name of the potter on it.
