KALORIZIKI, TOMB 1 (continued)

P 2237 23. Buchero jug with strap handle with light buff clay. Unlike other Buchero pots it has a foot. This is most interesting as it is the only Buchero pot that we cannot assign to Burial 2 with any degree of probability. It appears to belong, and very likely does, to Burial 1. Another difference between this pot and other Buchero pots is the comparatively low ribbing. On sandy soil. Level -2.43 m. at 0.09 m. above floor.

P 2240 24. Bowl - cooking bowl. Two strap handles from shoulder to rim, coarse brick-colored clay. Round bottom without base ring or foot. Level -2.51 m. at 0.02 m. above floor, which is high here on sandy soil.

P 2264 26. Amphora. Coarse light brick-colored clay with dark core. a,b Two horizontal handles. Triangle between encircling black bands on shoulder. Base ring. Full of human remains, not cremated, doubtless of one previously buried in tomb. Calling this burial 1C. See film 166.35 and 167.1 and 2. Did this amphora belong to person whose bones are in it or to person who took his or her place on floor of tomb? Level -2.38 m. at 0.13 m. above floor.

P 2252 27. Sherds of cup with small horizontal handles, high foot or rather stem. Black triangles between encircling bands. Light tan clay. Level -2.32 at 0.12 above floor. Under no.26 on sandy soil.

P 2253 28. Cup. Complete, unbroken horizontal handles, foot. Black bands inside and outside. Level -2.37 m. on floor which is high here.

P 2231 29. Cup like previous. Broken, probably about complete. Level -2.18 m. at 0.18 m. above floor on clean sandy soil.
