Ouse and Derwent Project: Samian ware
A fragment of a Roman cup was discovered by a metal detectorist working with the Ouse and Derwent Project on the site of our 2018 excavation at North Duffield. It was red *terra sigillata*, 'Samian ware' that was imported from Central Gaul in modern day France. Another distinctive sherd of Samian ware was recovered during the excavation, part of a flanged bowl. Both probably date to the 2nd century AD and are characteristically fine Roman table wares. This is a 3D reconstruction of what the vessels would have looked like when new. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab

Roman pottery (Samian ware) and mould
I made this model after seeing Dani Wootton's excellent '5 Fascinating Finds' video on the Time Team channel https://youtu.be/m-Z1uM9DMRI This model illustrates Dani's description of how Roman pottery was mass produced using a mould with decorations pressed into the mould surface. Click on the annotations on the model for more information. In researching this model I visited the British Museum in London to get a closer look at the 'punches' that were used to create the decorative indentations in the mould surface. I felt sure the surface of the punch must be curved to follow the contour of the mould but wasn't sure if the curve was more pronounced so that the punch would be rocked back and forwards when being pressed into the clay. The example I saw at the British Museum (Ancient Rome room - display case 26 - see below) showed a punch with a figure on it and a slight convex curve which I think would have matched the surface of the mould.

Gaulish Samian Ware - reconstruction
This reconstruction of a Gaulish Samian Ware bowl was made in Zbrush and textured in Substance Painter. I based the model on a fragment of the bowl found during excavation of an Iron Age Settlement in Cornwall. The fragment was featured in a Time Team video "5 Fascinating Finds" available on YouTube https://youtu.be/m-Z1uM9DMRI (about 5 mins in to see this find) I have attempted to recreate the figures seen on the fragment - see image below - a standing figure of the god Pan holding a mask and horn, a dancing figure and two reclining figures.
