Remarks

I don't think enough of this jar sherd is preserved to dertermine the profile of the shoulder. There are some very large inclusions in the pooly sorted fabric, some of which seem more like bits of rock that are larger than very course sand. The decoration seems to be a series of triangles , but none of the pattern is fully preserved so it's hard to say for sure.
