| Category Code: | C | |
| Year: | 1976 | |
| Object Number: | 347 | |
| Description: | Asymmetrical rim fragment probably from large askoid vesel in red-on-white painted ware. From a slight spreading along diagonal lower broken edge apparently marking junction with shoulder, fragment rises irregularly in slight outward slant to uneven simple taper-rounded rim. Fabric resembles that of local EN spongy ware. N.B. major inclusions seem to be calcite in discrete crystals. | |
| Decoration: | Outside, over rim, and inside more thinly, especially toward bottom, coated with slightly pinkish paint. Outside, most of one and part of a second of apparently a band of orangey red solid large triangles, apices up, polished, seemingly following line of rim. | |
| Material: | Semi-fine fabric, many stoney white inclusions perhaps of 2 different kinds and other dark inclusions, lightly micaceous; fired very dark gray at core going to bright orange surface layers. | |
| Condition: | Fragment. Mended from 2 joining sherds, broken all around, except at rim. | |
