4th-century shoulder bag?
#11
From Carlisle, Castle Street circa 100ad, said to be a leather pouch for Vindolanda wooden tablets so a kind of envelope(its just the right size) made from thin leather sticthed round the edge and then turned approx 135x125mm.

   

From the Microfische in Roman Waterlogged Remains at castle street, McCarthy CWAAS research series 5.

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
