Section Number:   ΟΟ 187
Title:   Kiln Support
Category:   Misc. Clay Objects
Description:   Triangular leaf-shaped object turned up at the broad end to make a flat bottom, projecting at one side.
Similar to MC 702 and 703, but more rounded at the end, and less carefully shaped, the projecting edge at the bottom not flat enough or broad enough to enable the object to stand.
Red clay; light buff surface; one edge burned.
Notes:   Thirty eight other kiln supports were found at the same time in the six channels at the east end. Another ten were found later in the fourth channel on the north side.
Context:   Kiln furnace. It was found in the ash deposit at the bottom of the channels leading out from the central fire chamber. Found with MC 702-703. No wasters and practically no sherds came from this ash fill.
