Here is a stove I made from Pompeii which in some way thought of this type or terracotta being used.

Hi, 
After swim around the sword area in the mornning- a new present from the sea.

Can you tell if it's roman ?

This is a very significant find, there's probably a whole shipwreck down there, maybe a military ship. You say you're with the IAA so I presume it's already been reported?

These can't truly be identified until after cleaning, but considering their width Tony above is probably right, they probably are Mainz patterns of some sort. The stove you identified is also a huge find, don't pass that over.
