Location: Saffron Walden museum 430 Rigby, V, with a contribution by I C Freestone, ‘The pottery’, in Foster, I, ‘The Lexden Tumulus: A re-appraisal of an Iron Age burial from Colchester, Essex’, BAR. 156, Oxford, 1986, 110-123. exc,col/cem/cl5 BC - 10 BC (for burial) arr/?clc/mca/trb/btb/gro/osd A new catalogue of the 1924 finds, which attempts to distinguish the original grave-goods (grog-tempered butt-beaker and bowl, and probably also a Central Gaulish mica-gilt jar). Previously published in Archaeologia 76 (1927) by Layer. See also entry no. 447. Location: Colchester & Essex Museum 431 Rodwell, K A, with contributions by V Rigby, K F Hartley, W Rodwell, D F Williams, & M W C Hassall, ‘The pottery’, in The Prehistoric and Roman settlement at Kelvedon, Essex, CBA Research Report 63, 1987, 100-129. exc,col/?mil,cem,twn,kln/second half 1st BC - 4th AD/ggp,usf amp (Dr 1B)/arh/ass/sts/cts/cls/clc/nvc/orc/rgh/mca/cgg/glz/ tng/trb/nri/btb/crb/pph/bbl/gro/gry/har/esh/lsh/clm/oxm/ vrm/buf/clb/wht/fcp/hax/wcs/osd/gft/lnd/ppr/stv/wse Published by period and significant groups - quite full printed text supplemented by microfiche catalogue of rest of illustrated pottery. Fabric types series given for Iron Age coarse wares. Note a fine IA stamp-decorated vessel (previously published in Britannia 4) and that not everyone is convinced by the arguments for the military phase (see entry no. 436).

The unusually large deposit of pottery in the latest pm-Roman Iron Age ditch may be evidence of a rite of termination. Location: Chelmsford & Essex Museum 434 Rodwell, W I, ‘The samian’, in entry no. 431, 92-100. exc,col/?mil,cem,twn/pre-Flavian - Antonine (÷ stamped Arretine platter)! usf arr/sts/mvs/cts/ets/cls The (detailed) printed text is supplemented by a catalogue of the decorated samian on microfiche. Of note are fragments of decorated and plain early Lezoux ware, alas not in useful contexts. See Rodwell in Wickenden (entry no. 444) for a more recent comment on the paucity of East Gaulish samian at Kelvedon (more abundant on coastal sites than inland). Location: Coichester & Essex Museum 435 Turner, C, ‘The Pottery’ (from Beauchamps Farm, Wickford), in Eddy, M R, ed., ‘Work of the Essex County Council Archaeology Section, 1979’, Essex Arch. & Hist. 12, 1980 (1981), (51-85), 65-67. sir/twn/late 1st - late 3rd ?nfc/grc/clm/osd/rsx/wcs Only some eleven sherds published, the rest recorded (Level III) in Essex SMR.

Note that the figure reference should be ‘12’ throughout, not ‘14’. See also fig. 9 for a range of late Iron Age grog-tempered forms. Location: E.C.C.
