Size | max. pres. length: 0.15500m; max. pres. width: 0.08659m; max. pres. thickness: 0.03133m; min. pres. thickness: 0.00869m |
Condition | Two fragments conserved from four pieces (A) and two pieces (B) from a modern break. A and B join, but are not adhered, to preserve an interior view of the artifact, which represents two tiles so heavily vitrified that they have fused with a piece of chert in between them. Fragments are worn, pitted, and encrusted. |
Description | Two joining fragments of vitrified terracotta tile which have fused into one, but have been intentionally left in conservation as two artifacts to preserve a view of the biscuit. The fragments preserve a concave, unfinished face of a cover tile on one face; the opposite face is heavily vitrified, slightly convex, and otherwise unidentifiable. The fused fragment which represents the unfinished face of a cover tile preserves a finished edge. All other edges are ancient or modern breaks. In the biscuit the two fused tiles can be discerned by their different color profiles as well as delineated by a fragment of chert (stone) which must have been trapped beneath them when they fused. The chert is 0.01547m in length and 0.00590m in max. pres. height. |
