This type of bowl was in use between c. 1850 and 1910 (Atkinson and Oswald 1969: type 30), and the thorn design was one of the many decorative types popular during this period (e.g. Ayto 1994:11; Hammond 2009: figure 7). Clay tobacco pipes were manufactured (using two-piece moulds) in huge quantities in many towns and cities around the UK and were also imported from the Continent. They were cheap, highly disposable items, often given away with a pint of beer by the local publican. The short 'cutty' pipes were popular with working men as they could be smoked while working, whereas the longer pipes were more for smoking at leisure. This clay pipe was found approximately 250 m outside the offshore designated area for the HMS Coronation wreck site. The period of the pipe's manufacture confirms that it is not associated with this vessel, which was wrecked in 1691. The pipe's location is thought to be within an extensive dumping site featuring artefacts dating from the 19th century through to the modern period.", "notes":"Although the clay pipe is not associated with HMS Coronation, there is still the potential for small and delicate items to be discovered beyond the extent of the protected areas that may be associated with the wreck.\n\nHMS Coronation was an English Royal Navy Second Rate ship of the line, armed with 90 guns. Built at Portsmouth Dockyard and launched in 1685, it was wrecked in a storm in 1691 off Rame Head, Cornwall, with the loss of approximately 600 lives (Lavery 1983: 162).\n\nAfter the discovery of the site in 1967, it was protected in 1978 under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 (1978 - Coronation offshore Site 17; 1989 - Coronation inshore Site 33). The offshore site has an exclusion zone radius of 150 m, while the inshore site has an exclusion zone radius of 250 m. Divers may apply for a licence to visit these sites.\n\nThe NRHE and Cornwall & Scilly HER reference numbers cited in this record refer to the wreck of HMS Coronation.", "classification":"Dress and personal accessories", "periodFrom":39, "periodTo":41, "fromdate":1850, "todate":1910, "treasure":1, "TID":"298\/16", "workflow":3, "institution":"MAS", "datefound1":"2016-09-23T00:00:00Z", "subClassification":"Personal accessory", "smrRef":"1082129; 1082130", "otherRef":"Cornwall & Scilly HER Number: SX 44 NW 53; SX 44 NW 54", "currentLocation":"With finder", "created":"2016-09-28T13:16:16Z", "updated":"2016-10-12T14:23:58Z", "secuid":"11", "length":115, "quantity":1, "material":5, "subsequentAction":"28", "completeness":4, "decstyle":3, "manufacture":9, "preservation":1, "discovery":15, "recorderID":"PAS57BC1B67001A23", "identifierID":"PAS57BC1E1600176F", "createdBy":2, "countyID":43750, "county":"Cornwall", "fourFigure":"SX4348", "fourFigureLat":50.31098713, "fourFigureLon":-4.20632722, "what3words":"strict.crackles.falters", "precision":10, "creator":"MAS MAS", "updatedBy":"MAS", "materialTerm":"Ceramic", "primaryMaterialBM":10539, "decstyleTerm":"Other", "manufactureTerm":"Moulded", "completenessTerm":"Complete", "preservationTerm":"Fair", "periodFromName":"NINETEENTH CENTURY", "periodToName":"MODERN", "discoveryMethod":"Diving", "subsequentActionTerm":"Submitted as wreck to the Receiver of Wreck", "filename":"WP_20160926_16_45_23_Pro.jpg", "thumbnail":"https:\/\/marinefinds.org.uk\/images\/thumbnails\/29.jpg", "imagedir":"images\/MAS", "recorder":"MF", "timestamp":"2024-10-09T14:15:05.486Z", "url":"https:\/\/marinefinds.org.uk\/database\/artefacts\/record\/id\/11" }, "id":11 }, { "type":"Feature", "geometry":{ "type":"Point", "coordinates":[ 0.60677648, 51.50793861 ] }, "properties":{ "findIdentifier":"finds-10", "id":10, "old_findID":"MAS-100010", "objecttype":"FOOD AND DRINK SERVING CONTAINER", "broadperiod":"ROMAN", "description":"This is a group of nine sherds of ceramic, of which six are samian ware (also called terra sigillata). Samian pottery is a mould-made, glossy red, mass-produced, fine tableware. It was first manufactured in northern Italy at the end of the 1st century BC, however by AD 43 production had moved to Gaul (France). The production of samian ware ended around AD 260. The following interpretation is based on the photographs associated with this record. An examination of the fabric and surviving decorative elements may provide further information on the region of manufacture or production centre and the identity of the potter, which can indicate a more accurate date of production. Images 1 & 4: A sherd of the base of a samian vessel, form unknown. The easily legible name-stamp is that of Advocisus who worked at Lezoux (Central Gaul) c. AD 160 to AD 200. Images 2 & 5: Three decorated samian sherds that all appear to be from form 37 bowls and are suspected to be from Central Gaul. All three have surviving decorative elements. Image 3: This smaller samian base sherd was probably part of a cup form. Interestingly, it has been observed that samian cup forms are very strongly represented in the Essex region, especially at rural sites, to a degree not seen elsewhere (Willis 2004). Image 5 (top right): The form of this non-samian sherd suggests that it is of 1st or earlier 2nd century AD date. Images 6 & 8: This is a Roman jug rim that was probably made in Britain. Image 7: This is the rim of an imported Roman amphora. Amphora are a type of wheel-thrown container used for the transport and storage of liquids and dry products. As an inexpensive container for the transport of goods, they were broken up and discarded at their destination rather than being reused.", "notes":"Samian vessels are known to occur in structured deposits associated with water, and therefore are interpreted to have played a role in the activities undertaken at such locations (Willis 2004). In some instances, in Britain, samian ware was a selected and prominent element within assemblages deposited in wells or shafts and other wet places (Willis 2004).
