This flat bottom dish with everted rim lacks decoration on the interior or on the lip. On the exterior, the decoration begins with motif SC1340, followed by zone marker RZ4D-3R-2. The main motif (PK445) is the “broad nose” face design, in which the eyes have been reduced to small stamped circles and the nose has been widened and emphasized. The decoration finishes with zone marker RZ4D-3-2 along the edge of the base.

This sherd is most likely from a flat bottom dish, although the alternative possibility that it is from a carinated bowl (IB2) cannot be ruled out, as the base of the rim is absent. The interior surface is well burnished but not decorated. The inner edge of the lip carries motif M77-1-2, a repeated series of short dentate lines, while the outer edge has motif GS498, triangular cutouts alternating with stamped lines; all of these are well filled in with lime. On the exterior there is a short gap below the lip, then motif M2-1-1, followed by zone marker RZ4D-3R-2. The main motif is PK78, a simple variant of the zigzag design. The exterior decoration is also well filled in with lime, making it stand out sharply.

This rim and neck is from a small jar with a vertical neck and nearly right-angle everted rim; the jar might have been carinated although this is not possible to determine. There are traces of stamping on the lip but the motif is not clear. On the exterior, the coarse dentate stamped design is motif M7, bordered on the top with zone marker RZ4D-3R-4 and below with zone marker RZ4D-2R-1.

This is the carinated portion only of a jar with a fairly abrupt, sharp-angled carination. The decoration is limited to the area above the carination, and consists of motif M24-4, a set of open cross-hashed lines bounded below by a horizontal line, below which is an open gap, then another horizontal line defining the top of motif PK188, consisting of sets of four slanting incised lines alternately slanting right or left. This has been recorded as a separate vessel because of slightly differences in the decoration and reconstructed carination diameter, however, it is quite possible that it is from the same vessel as ECA-V-103.

This is the carinated portion only of a jar with a fairly abrupt, sharp-angled cariation. The decoration is confined to the area above the carination. Only a small fragment remains of the upper incised motif, PK112. There is a gap between PK112 and the lower incised motif, PK466, consisting of sets of six slanting lines, alternating between slanting to the right or left. This has been recorded as a separate vessel because of slightly differences in the motifs and reconstructed carination diameter, however, it is quite possible that it is from the same vessel as ECA-V-102.

This was merged with ECA-V-094.

This is the carinated portion only of a carinated jar, decorated above the carination with rather sloppily executed incised lines. The motif, PK190, consists of a series of geometric spaces filled in with open parallel lines. There are traces of lime in-filling in the incised grooves. Although recorded as a separate vessel due to minor variations in the design, this is very likely from the same vessel as ECA-V-108, based on similarities of paste, carination angle, and carination diameter.

The everted rim of a flat bottom dish has zone marker RZ4D-3R-2 running along the interior below the lip, and the lip carried motif PK243, triangular cutouts alternating with stamped triangles. On the exterior the decoration is not complete enough to determine the full motif (recorded as TFG187), which is made up of very open, curved dentate stamped lines and zone marking.

This delicate, thin-walled jar with everted rim has a simple incised motif (TFG3665) on the inner edge of the rim, consisting of slanted lines. The main motif is only incompletely represented (TFG3540), but enough remains to indicate that this simple incised design represents a highly simplified, stylized face with the eyes indicated by open circles, and with upraised arm-like extensions to either side of the face. Portions of two such faces are present, and presumably the faces continued around the rim. This seems to be a highly simplified, incised version of the classic anthropomorphic face motif seen, for example, in vessel ECA-V-045.
