Period
Late Bronze II
Remarks

Measures in cm. Medium sized cooking pot from T32 shrine that when coded required restoration/ While the body to rim were intact, the base was in pieces and hence not coded in initial description. Jar as a whole is quite fragile, which may be a result of either over-firing during its use life (exterior discolored by carbon traces) or by final conflagration of the shrine. Jar is rather globular in shape with a short neck and a cut ledge rim. Decoration on the shoulder quite simple with two circumferential rings of oblique nail incisions bracketing a combed set of 3 shallow circumferential lines,
