A Potted History: Black Burnished Ware with Grace

We collaborated with Hampshire Cultural Trust to bring you a fascinating video series for this year’s Festival of Archaeology! ‘A Potted History – Exploring the Iron Age/Roman Transition in Hampshire’ explores how pottery has helped us to better understand the impact of the Roman conquest on people’s lives. Making a pot has always been a science as well as an art. Fashions and tastes dictated what was thought valuable or beautiful, but we can learn a lot from the techniques and raw materials that were used, too. Delving a little deeper into the science, we will join archaeologist and STEM ambassador, Grace, to find out more about Black Burnished Wares. Coiled by hand, these dark vessels are made from a grainy clay that can be rich in fragments of iron ores, flint, quartz, shale and mica. Grace will show you the beauty of these wares that remained valuable to their owners long after the Roman’s introduced new fashions and processes to the country.
