Comments

This consists of the carination and a portion of the upper body of a large, very intricately decorated jar, with elaborate dentate stamped motifs above the carination. What is extant of the decoration begins with motif CS55-3, followed by a broad zone marker RZ4D-7-2. Below this is motif GS361, a horizontal series of stamped boxes, followed by zone marker RZ4D-4-2. The next horizontal band consists of motif A329, which are probably stylized oval shaped eyes. Below this is zone marker RZ4D-4R-2, and finally motif GS632, sets of slightly slanting dentate lines, ends at the carination.
