Remarks

10.18.06 A rim to body sherd of a red-burnished bowl. A slightly thicker, bulging rim than in the previous sherd coded (WSG.12.C.24), which ends in a thick, rounded point. Like the previous sherd, there is no neck or shoulder, and the rim extends upwards off of the convex body. It is inward only in relation to the axis of the body, but is in fact vertical with the axis of the vessel. This sherd was broken in half and half was taken for INAA. Sent for INAA in Feb. 2007.
