Remarks

This is a large basin of a new type, for which other sherds have been sent for drawing (as will this one). The rim points inward, like type 9, but without the carination. The surfaces have black clouds suggestive of burning in use, so I think this may well be a cooking pot. Base color is a brownish orange on exterior. Interior is mottled dark and light browns and grays and blacks.
