Comments

The rim portion of a well-fired unrestricted bowl with well executed, very fine dentate stamping. The undecorated interior surface is burnished. The lip has an inner motif (GS540) consisting of alternating triangular cutouts (lime-filled) and dentate lines. On the exterior, the decoration begins with motif A1, below which is zone marker RZ4D-3R-2. The main motif is PK142, of the zigzag family of motifs. It is possible that this bowl was originally supported on a pedestal base.
