LB pithos fragment exterior surface largley consistent in color with some evidenced of blackened surface on the lower left, possible firing clouds. Rim decorated with an oblique hatch design, while the upper shoulder features and anthropomorphic figure applied in raised relief with a single shard of obsidian embedded in the body's left side. The obsidian was embedded in the pot prior to firing. Below the figure is a wavy line incised above a raised belt. The center of the shoulder is occupied by two additional wavy lines and a final raised belt. While the inclusions listed consist of coarse sand, there are also numerous grains og medium sand present in the fabric. Consists of four joined sherds--additional peices are likely present in the locus 107 matrix. Some pebble inclusions are visible on the interior sherd surface, as well as a possible additional interior slip of coarse white clay, inteneded to roughen the interior surface
