Remarks

Likely an LB jar sherd. The decorative schema consists of 5 remaining comb-incised circumferential decorations, placed on the mid shoulder. The lines average 0.2cm in width and are placed 0.1cm apart. The exterior features well-preserved polish, but is moderately crazed and hosts 10% white corrosion, together obscuring things. Circumferential rotational striations are visible on both surfaces. Polish also seems to have been applied circumferentially. In addition to the fine sand noted above, limited frequencies of coarse sand particles are also present in the fabric. Particles of all sizes perforate both surfaces in moderate frequencies, including pyrite particles. Breaks are rough.
