The rest of the fragments are from the middle part of the vessels that cannot be certainly identified as shape. Pottery workshops Lezoux group (nos. 1-6, 9) Some vessels made in this group are of Dragendorf 37 type and they have been decorated in Paternus II (nos. 4), Paternus II-III (no. 3) and Cinnamus (no. 5) styles. Other ones could be produced at Martres-de-Veyre (nos. 1-2).
