- Description
- Part of body of cylindrical ceramic object, possibly a pot stand. Hard-fired micaceous monochrome clay. Fragment has a shallow groove running the circumference of its interior surface; looks almost as if done with a finger, except that it has many narrow lines within, as if combed. Exterior preserves a much narrower groove at the same level. On the wall, the remains of a delicate tooled design in the form of a crosshatched triangle. Exterior surface was smoothed and burnished. Right side edge is a finished surface. Signs of burning on exterior.
