Remarks

Designated MAE191--radiographed, XRF, SAXS. Am undecorated fragment from a small LM vessel, probably a small-necked jar. The interior is almost completely missing, eroded away except for the most superior portion of the internal rim (no thickness measurement taken). The exterior may have originally be polished, with horizontal technique, but erosion has dulled it so much that it is difficult to say conclusively. Moderate circumferential rotational striations are on all surfaces. In addition to the fine sand, significant frequencies of medium and coarse sand are visible in the fabric. Moderate amounts of inclusions and pyrite perforate the external surface. Breaks are rough.
