An undecorated, large KA bowl with 2-part rim. The fragment consists of two joined, restored sherds and one piece of gypsum fill. Both parts of the 2-part rim are highly abraded from use. The exterior surface features dense, horizontal polish marks and the interior features polish marks and 40% crackalure. The interior surface is Dark Reddish Gray 2.5YR 4/1 mottled with Light Red 10R 6/6, particularly on the medial, first rim part, and the lower body. Core band one color is actually Dusky Red 2.5YR 3/2. There is significant delamination between the core bands, visible in the break. Fine sand is also present in the fabric, in small amounts. Breaks are smooth. No significant corrosion to note.
