Fabric, firing, and surface description
10YR 7/4, very pale brown. Early/Middle Roman Corinthian pale lamp fabric: very fine, somewhat hard.
Preservation comment
Two joining sherds preserve most of top of lamp and less than one quarter of back wall and base. Well preserved surface but heavy, dense encrustation around nozzle and upper handle.
