This number was assigned to two objects from the same container, this Late Roman jug handle sherd and an LRA5 rim sherd. The LRA5 rim sherd was re-assigned as KTH2491. We have no graphic documentation of this Late Roman jug.
Jug. While identical in fabric to LRA3, the handle is oval in section so that this piece is perhaps best restored as a small jug in Ephesian fabric. The body would have been rounded.
Fabric, firing, and surface description
LRA3 fabric in all aspects.
Preservation comment
Single handle sherd, lower part with attachment to shoulder.
