Sh 670 B 340 slip Burnished bowl Wheelmade Clay light brownish buff rather gritty with vari-coloured sand particles. Smooth flaky paint, now purplish orange, but much weathered, showing signs of burnishing. Outside paint has streaks of dark color horizontally, which, however, I attribute to soil discoloration on some role factor rather than paint. Preserved is a fragment of floor and rim of shallow bowl. Floor meets wall, i.e. rim at a decided angle. Rim narrows and is plain, though slightly rounded on inside.
