Remarks

The profile of this bowl sherd is unique. On the shoulder there is a squared band that breaks sharply at the bottom where the body begins. The rectangular rim rises continuously from the cylindrical neck (such that it's hard to even distinguish a neck from the rim). The exterior color of this sherd is not only very dark gray; there are also browner areas towards the rim.
