Fragment of a large LB storage jar, it is n/s here, and the most superior portion of the sherd appears to begin at the most inferior edge of he neck. The decorative schema consists of a two-register application of circumferential applique cord ornaments positioned around and above several applications of circumferential comb incisions. At the leftmost edge of the sherd (when in proper orientation), the applique is completely removed, leaving a smoother, original surface, suggesting that the cords may have been applied as one piece, or in quick succession. Where present, the cords average 0.9 cm in width and are spaced 0.7 cm apart, with an average periodicity of 2 cm. Half of the visible cord openings are filled with yellowish gray corrosion. Between the cord ornaments, the circumferential comb incisions are quite fine/shallow and difficult to distinguish from rotational striations. Approximately 1.5 cm below the inferior cord ornament, the comb incisions shift from fine and circumferential to more deeply incised and skew at a 20- or 30-degree angle below circumferential. Here they average 0.2 cm in width. 20% of the exterior is covered in similar yellowish gray corrosion as that noted above, while the internal surface features only sparse amounts. Dense circumferential rotational striations are visible on both surfaces, and not on the exterior surface where the ornamentation element(s) have been removed. In addition to the fine sand, significant frequencies of coarse and medium sand inclusions are visible in the fabric. Breaks are rough.
