Alternatively, it might be a piece of North Devon gravel-tempered ware.
Got anyone up there in Connecticut who knows 17th century material well
you can show it to?

Roberta,
Off the top of my head without seeing anything, your "coarse
earthenware
vessel...with heavy grit temper...and possible remnants of a slip or
greenish glaze," sounds suspiciously like olive jar. Please send
photos,
it's relatively common out here--New Mexico. Interestingly, I
recovered 1
sherd of olive jar years ago in Concord, Mass.
