NETTUNO fabric
1 Description on the basis of macroscopical observation up to x30 (see image of fresh cross section above and table below) This fabric is reddish to brownish and occasionally fired to almost black. Predominant Munsell colours are 2.5 YR 3/3-3/4 (dusky red) and 10 YR 2/1(black). The impression of a very low percentage of inclusions by naked eye is confirmed by microscopical analysis as the total volume of inclusions never exceeds 5% with the majority of the sherds having only 1-2%. The distribution of inclusions over the clay is very uneven. The low volume of inlusions and their distribution make it impossible to describe sorting in detail though the fabric seems well sorted by eye. The fabric contains some fragments of relatively large shiny, black Augite and spheroidal rust brown Ferro-Manganese nodules, as well as occasionally reddish brown Flint, colourless or transparent Feldspars and Quartz. The particles are rounded to sub-angular. The structure of the fresh cross section is extremely variable: from smooth to hackly. Under the microscope, the fracture appears hackly due to the combination of a very dense clay matrix with a very low percentage of inclusions with a relatively coarse fraction. The paste for this type of ceramic seems to have been hardly processed before modelling the vessel. A few sherds locally exceed the average hardness of 2-3 on Mohs scale. This fabric shares characteristics with fabric number 2: NET I.(ad*)eq.ps-vps(1-4).c, (large) FeMn nodules/(large) Augite.

Observation of the thin-section shows that this fabric has very few inclusions except for some brownish black Ferro-Manganese nodules (with inclusions) and Augite fragments that can also be detected by the naked eye (both have sizes up to around 2000 = 0,2 cm). The Ferro-Manganese nodules are rounded, while the more frequently occurring tiny Ferro-Manganese stains in the clay matrix (up to 500 = 0,05 cm) are rounded to sub-angular. The section hardly contains other inclusions. It has, however, a rich variety of shrinkage fissures, the majority following the shape of the section. Towards the centre of the section these fissures tend to have random orientations. The clay matrix is composed of randomly orientated clay pellets, as can be observed under crossed polarizors: the faint micaceousness of the clay shows variety in orientation when turning the rotation table. Even in the fresh cross section diversity in red to brown colour of individual clay pellets is visible, indicating that the paste was poorly blended. The colour variety should not be interpreted as temper composed of crushed pottery. Description of sorting is impossible on account of the low percentage of inclusions. The relatively large but few
inclusions, the uneven distribution, the random orientation of clay
pellets and the fissure patterns indicate that vessels of this fabric were
handmade.

40. Cylindro-ovoidal storage jar with slightly flaring wall, straight rim and convex lip. On transition from body to rim, a horizontal notched cord, rounded in section into which a notched lug is incorporated, oval in section. Common red impasto Inside : 10R 5/6 (red) to 10R3/1 (dark reddish grey) Cross section : 2.5YR 3/3 Outside : 10R 5/8 (red) to 10R 4/1 (dark reddish grey) 16.2 x 18.6 x 1/1.2 0.75/0.95 (lip) 1.9 (wall + cord) 4.0 (wall + lug). D 50 The jar is extremely crudely made. The outer ends of the cord are clearly visible at the lug. Therefore the lugs were placed first after which the cord was positioned in between the lugs. The CaCO3 encrustations were only visible on the outside of the vessel that lay on top while excavated. Therefore it appears that this encrustation derives from post-depositional alterations of CaCO3 in the soil, possibly by dissolution of seashells by acid rain and subsequent deposition on top of the sherds when the soil dried.
