Comments

This is a fairly thick and somewhat crudely made ring foot with a thick, flat base and steep angle between the base and vertical section. The dentate stamping is coarse and sloppily executed, with the motifs consisting of alternating bands of A417 stamped circles and GS216 lozenges. There are several triangular cut outs extending through the vertical part of the ring foot; one of these retains lime fill suggesting that the cut outs were originally completely filled with lime. The thick vertical edge of the base has zone marker RZ4D-3R-1.
