83 sherd illustrated in the article above
vi. Cooking-pots and Bowls (Fig. 3.4) Only
two vessels of this class have so far been at all restored from
the mass of wasters. The bodies of these pots are generally thinner than many
other forms and broken up in
much smaller fragments. 83 and 84 are both badly over-fired to a brittle, dull
red colour and their fabric is
heavily tempered with sand; they both present elaborately formed rims.
