Remarks

11.18.06 A rim to body sherd of a thick bowl with polished surfaces. The exterior color is a reddish brown and a dark brown. The neck leans inward slightly (hence conical) and the rim is three part and inward. The first part is a flat top which extends inward beyond the neck. The second part is an axis that cuts straight downward at 90 degrees from the top, and the third part slants back in toward the neck. Sent for INAA in February 2007.
