An LM cup featuring two incised line decorations on the lower shoulder. There is a circumferential indent placed on the superior rim surface. On the right side, the interior rim is significantly eroded away. The most inferior portion of the interior rim is spalled away (closest to the base). The exterior surface and breaks are almost completely covered in light yellowish brown corrosion and the interior surface is completely clear of corrosion. High frequency rotational striations are visible on the entire interior surface. Core band one should be listed as Very Pale Brown 10YR 8/2 (not 7/4). There are limited amount of coarse sand also present in the fabric in addition to the fine sand. Limited amounts of pyrite popping and organic burnouts are visible on the interior body. Breaks are rough.
