Recorder
Adam Smith
Period
Late Bronze II
Remarks

Measurements are in cm. A simple censor with bowl shaped bottom and tall pipe-like neck. Carbon traces visible on interior and exterior. Decoration begins just below rim of pipe with incised wavy line. Below and striating the remainder of the pipe are shallow combed ribbing. This ribbing is of uneven depth and vanishes in places or drops to a simple stippling. Upper reaches of body also decorated with shallow combed incised concentric lines. Compare to what we called a funnel in T02E. This is clearly a censer form as it was found in proper orientation in the shrine of T32, inside the ash filled basin.
