Remarks

10.22.06 This is a rim to neck sherd of a small jar. The rim turns outward from the neck and is pointed on one side although rounded at the other break. The top of the rim arcs to the point. Since this is a closed vessel, it's like that the interior polish does not extend much lower than the neck. Sent for INAA in Feb 2007.
