Size max. pres. length 0.0560m; max. pres. width 0.0446m; max. pres. thickness 0.0253m

Description A fragment of plaster roughly in the shape of a rectangular prism with four impressions. Two of the impressions are flat and form a corner of two perpendicular planes. One of these is the largest side of the prism measuring 0.0517m by 0.0414m and the other is on a smaller side, roughly triangular in shape due to a concave reed impression that runs perpendicular to it, and measuring 0.0374m by 0.0273m by 0.0222m. The other two impressions are of reeds or sticks, as both display a concave curve. They run parallel to one another on the side of the prism opposite the larger flat impression and also parallel to it. They are perpendicular to the smaller flat impression. The better preserved reed impression measures 0.0424m in length, 0.0141m in width, and 0.0130m along the curve, which is preserved along the entire length. The smaller reed impression measures 0.0423m in length, 0.0102m in width, and 0.0110m along the curve, which is preserved for 0.0262m and then continually narrows for the remainder of the impression. Due to the placement of the two reed impressions on the same plane, the area between them, which is the face of the prism opposite the large flat impression, forms a smaller rectangle measuring 0.0524m by 0.0248m. This face is mainly made up of a consolidated modern break (0.0524m by 0.0160m). The second modern break is on the other side of the smaller reed impression and runs along an entire face of the prism. It is chipped on one end contributing to the narrowing of the smaller reed impression and extending into an adjacent unfinished side of the plaster fragment.
