Remarks

Most of the profile of a small LB jar or cup, consisting of 2 sub-fragments. Not enough rim preserved to measure diameter or percent. The decorative schema consists of 5 or 6 circumferential, incised line decorations, comb applied, on the vessel shoulder. They average 0.15cm in width. There is limited abrasion of the superior rim surface and the exterior body. The exterior surface is mottled with Brown 7.5YR 4/2 and 5/2. The exterior polish bleeds 1.9cm onto the interior surface of the vessel and it Brown 7.5YR 4/2. Body polishing marks are horizontal and there is no polish on the exterior neck. There are circumferential rotational striations visible on both surfaces. Besides the fine sand, significant amounts of coarse sand are visible in the fabric. 20% of the interior surface is covered with light yellow corrosion (shoulder). Breaks are rough.
