Remarks

10.14.06 This grip handle sherd is notable for the decoration on its exterior. Running down the vertical axis of the handle are two incised lines, and on either side of these lines are a series of oblique hatches (one one side almost aborded herringbones). I didn't proovide internal band Munsell colors because I don't want to break the sherd.
