Remarks

A medium-sized LB jar with a substantial neck and a simple should-mounted decorative schema--a three line, comb-applied zigzag positioned between two furrows (0.55 and 0.44cm wide respectively). The exterior surface is mottled with the above Black 7.5YR 2.5/1, Black GY1 2.5/N, and Brown 7.5YR 4/3. The interior is also likely mottled, but it is now difficult to say, after resotration. The exterior surface is polished, but more so above the b/s break. The interior surface features circumferential rotational striations. While very coarse sand is the dominant inclsuion mentioned above, coarse sand and medium sand are also visible. Very coarse sand and grit particles are visible perforating botht the internal and external surfaces. Coding was begun by Marshall and Greene on 2008-08-21 before restoration and finished on 2008-11-26. Vessel fragments are 90% present. Vessel stands wobbly due to convex, uneven base.
