Preservation comment
One large sherd preserves ca. 70% from top and back of lamp, including nearly entire discus, one-third of shoulder, upper handle, and small part of back wall. Two more joining sherds, not connecting to discus, preserve ca. 65% of right base and adjacent wall. Moderate to severe, extensive abrasion, pitting and slight flaking; worn breaks.
