Period
Late Bronze II
Remarks

A poorly preserved small jar from the basin in the T32 shrine. Portions of the exterior surface have spalled off but in general the jar is complete except for small missing rim fragment. The interior and exterior are both discolored by traces of carbon; I think it likely that the pot not only was set in fire, but also its contents were set on fire as well--gifts to the gods!
