Remarks

2.7.07 A body or shoulder sherd from an indeterminate vessel. THe sherd has two decorative motifs: a series of horizontal incised likes as if rendered by a wide-spaced comb and transecting this, a series of polished "hanging" triangles, or so it seems from what is extant. The exterior surface is mottled with grays and browns. Sent for INAA in Feb. 2007.
