Remarks

This is a smoothed, rim-to-shoulder sherd, distinctive for its incised ornamentation. The top most ornamentation is the zig zag, below which is circumfrential comb banding, below which is a single circumfrential row of nail incisions. Note that the bottom of the rim is separated from the neck by a ledge. There was disagreement between Pavel and Mickey on this sherd. Note that Pavel believes firmly that it is Late Bronze age, not early Yervandid. I changed in to group D in May 2012.
