Inverted conical neck, ridged on inner face. Sharply undercut collar rim; pointed, slightly everted lip. High loop handle, slightly grooved, attaches at upper neck and rim.
Fabric, firing, and surface description
Somewhat hard, rather gritty, dark orange fabric with rare to uncommon, small, subrounded white (calcareous) inclusions, rare small gray and red grains, and frequent tiny black bits. Not unlike Northern Palestinian orange fabric from Caesarea Maritima or its hinterland (see LRA5) but it has less granular texture and fewer prominent lime and quartzitic inclusions. Northern Galilean/Southern Phoenician.
Preservation comment
One large sherds preserves 22% or rim, upper neck, and upper attachment of one handle. Moderate, somewhat extensive abrasion, slight erosion; large chips around edges; very slight, scattered film of encrustation and some cloudy discoloration across surface.
