Description

A fine impasto body fragment, finished on the interior and exterior faces, with stamped impressions, some of which have been infilled with paint.  The majority of the fragment's profile has one orientation, but along one break edge preserves a carination and short projection up from it to a max. pres. length of 0.004 m at an angle greater than 90 degrees.  On the exterior face, on either side of the carination, is preserved a register of triangular shaped stamps composed of six lines radiating from a central apex.  The lines are shorter along the exterior and longer toward the center, creating a somewhat rounded edge across from the apex.  The stamps are a max. pres. width of 0.007 m, max. pres. height of 0.008 m, and max. pres. thickness of each individual line is 0.001 m.  On the short side of the carination, seven are partly preserved.  Seven are fully preserved in the register on the longer side of the carination, each infilled with a light colored paint.
