Remarks

LM shoulder fragment in highly abraded condition. There are several possible decorative incisions that may represent circumferential comb ornaments, but the surface is in too poor condition to confirm. Of interest is the unsmoothed interior, where two coils can be observed in the wall. The exterior is covered in 40% light gray dendritic corrosion and the interior is completely covered in the same. All surface determinations are therefore provisional, prior to acidic cleaning. In addition to the fine sand, moderate frequencies of medium sand inclusions are visible in the fabric. Breaks are rough.
