Remarks

11.01.06 A rim to body sherd of a phiale with very eroded surfaces. I'm confident that this was once slipped and polished red on both interior and exterior. The pointed rim is slightly rounded. The break between the body and neck is not as severe as some other phiale. Sent for INAA in Feb 2007.
