0.8 cm
Late 11th - early 13th c.
Small fragment of a mustard monochrome tile, probably square-shaped. None of the tiles of the House of Lustreware was found in situ, therefore their use remains uncertain. An ongoing study conducted by A. Fusaro re-examines the topic on the basis of the archaeological data.
