Remarks

75% complete jar with 2-3 sherds. The first decorative element is a nail shaped impression at the neck-shoulder break that covers 360 degrees. The next decorative element is 4-6 comb lines that cover 360 degrees on the shoulder. The first decorative element partially overlaps these lines. The next decorative element is again a nail impression that covers 360 degrees just abover the body-shoulder break. In one area, about 10% of the element the nail impressesion are overlapping making 2 larger impressions. The final decorative element is 360 degrees of oblique hatching around the base. The vessel is not at all polished, but there is exterior motteling with Light Reddish Brown 5YR 6/3. On the internal neck-shoulder break there are several furrows visible suggesting a join and potentially separate manufacture of the portions inferior and superior to the neck. Some pyrite popping visible on the exterior surface. Corrosion is minimal to non existent. The coarse sand temper is more visible on the interior than exterior surface. There is some abrasion visible on the superior rim surface, but it is minor. The rim also has several small spalls or chips. Rotational striations are visible over the entire interior surface. Coded w/AFG.
