This is a nice study group. For your consideration - a large Roman pottery transport amphora handle and amphora toe. These fragments date from between 200 BC and 200 AD. The handle fragment measures 134 mm (5.2") tall and 118 mm (4.6") wide. The amphora toe measures 53.8 mm (2.11") tall and 52 mm (2") tall.These fragments are not confirmed to be from the same amphora, and it's unlikely, as the handle has many calcretions and other sea growths (ie. coral) present. The toe has calcretions, but no evidence of being submerged in the sea. Provenance provided to purchaser.
