| description | Sherd from the shoulder of a closed vessel, wheelmade, burnt to a pale brown colour from what would probably have been bright red. The fabric contains a little mica and is grit tempered, exterior smoothed and burnished, possibly coated with a thin slip. A symbol was shallowly incised after firing. Several red ware jugs with cut-away spouts found at the Palatial Complex had a similar symbol incised on the shoulder under the loop of the handle. |
