Shoulder sherd. Five core bands are present, all with different colors, save the outside and inside band. Decoration consists of five latitudinal, plateaued furrows with additional, smaller furrowing in the troughs. The peaks if the main furrows are very low with respect to the troughs, and their plateaued nature has a rounded trapezoidal appearance, perhaps from wear. The furrows are of mostly uniform width, but are not perfectly uniform. There are three extremely worn smaller furrows within each trough. The troughs they are located in are brownish in color, apparently from mineral buildup. The inside of the sherd appears to have a brown coating with plant matter embedded. I did not code the color for this, as it seems to be a thin layer applied, and is worn around the edges of the sherd. Perhaps the brown buildup in the troughs of the main furrows are not mineral buildup, but the same applied layer (slip?) that has worn off the outside of the vessel, except for the troughs, which may have been protected from weathering, especially by the three mini-furrows inside each trough.
