Remarks

11.19.06 A rim to body sherd of a bowl. The surfaces are eroded so hard to determine if they were once polished. The neck to body transition is marked by a pronounced ledge like that of a phiale. But the neck is shaped like a straight inverted cone (slightly concave at the bottom). The neck widens outward. The rim turns inward and is rounded pointed at the end. So the top of the rim is slanted. Sent for INAA in Feb 2007.
