Description	Fragments of large, wide-mouthed pot with thick rim; rim is flat on top with single groove near and parallel to inner edge of mouth; exterior of rim rectangular in section, protruding from body of pot, and molded with three parallel grooves forming two raised ridges. Other decoration was probably applied where scars remain: Fragment A has two originally round scars on top surface of rim; Fragment B has set of three scars: two roughly round scars flanking an irregular scar which covers both top and side of the rim -- this may have carried decoration such as an animal protome or human head (see entry 19700076).
