The above Roman pot was found by the Daniels family in Sherbuttgate, Pocklington. The family send it to the British Museum who replied to say it was a flanged bowl with slightly beaded rim of general purpose household use. Buff and cream ware with red painted decoration made in a Roman Kiln at Crambeck, near Castle Howard. Date is 300 A.D. Damaged by fire after having been discarded when a piece broke out.
Stuart Hodgson sent me the above photo of a roman Gallienus (258-263 A.D.) struck on an oval flan with an interesting reverse design of a centaur. (Found near Pocklington 1996)
This heraldic Horse Harness was found at Everingham and is believed to show the arms of Robert de Ros (Furfan) and dates from the 12th century.
