- Description
- Collander with rounded walls. Orientation of vessel indicated by thickening of wall towards base. Two rows of holes, not strictly placed or entirely parallel: an upper row with three complete holes and one partial at right, a lower row with three complete holes and one partial at left. All holes formed by round tool pushed through from exterior (excess clay on interior). Clay is entirely unfinished: form was more a globular pot than a very open bowl?

- Hard, slightly granular fabric consistently fired to very pale pink; occasional small round calcareous chunks; frequent tiny light and dark bits. Surface slipped, more pale than fabric.
