Remarks

The rim of this rim to shoulder sherd is not very well made, and the circle of the rim is therefore irregular, making it difficult to measure diameter. The sherd is generally a grayish beige, but there is a dark brown splotch on the bottom of the shoulder. The exterior of the rim is quite damaged. The interior is coarse. Although the vessel is smoothed, there is a slight, nondecorative band of ridging on the exterior. The color of the exerior surface is mottled. Interior color was also very difficult to measure.
