Remarks

Unclear if this sherd belongs to a small cup or a high-necked LB -pitcher-. Because the cups usually have a flatter, and more out-turned rim, I\\\'m leaning towards the upper portion of a long-necked vessel. The rim looks rolled, but I\\\'d need to slice it or DR it in order to say for sure. It appears as if the use of a tool to tuck the rolled rum under itself produced a little extra clay under the rim. It\\\'s also flatter there. Horizontal rotation scratches are visible on the external surface only. Both the internal and external surfaces are 30% covered in white corrosion. One very large mica pop on the internal surface, breaks are rough.
