Remarks

10.17.06 A rim to shoulder sherd of a jar with a rounded rim that turns outward slightly from the conical neck. The shoulder is decorated with incisions, one of which is a line that seems to circumvent the entire shoulder. Then a series of oblique lines extend down from this line. After measuring the dimensions above, the sherd was broken in half for INAA. Sent for INAA in Feb 2007.
