.bk A14 .fl ZB419MKB.j .fd qp notes from Marilyn .ei MKB .ed ZB419 .rd ZB419 .ri MKB q 758-p17 nt Wheelmade. High fire, greenish yellow, fine chaff and calcite. q 412-p13 nt High fire, greenish yellow, fine chaff, sand, fine calcite. q 810-p8 nt Med fire, faint sandwich section with interior of section lighter. Green-buff, so not usual RC color but much calcite - couldbe Ch or RC. q 511-p2 nt Med-high fire, fine chaff + fine calcite, yellowish on exterior and over rim, re-brown on interior. q 636-p6 nt Chaff and some sand, med fire. Ext + int greenish-yellow. Shallow interior ledge for lid - means lid tighter and more efficient cooking or greater seal for stored contents. q 565-p1 nt Med fire, ext + int greenish, fine chaff, some calcite, so ware color like CH but has calcite. q 658-p8 nt Med fire, buff ext + int, fine chaff, some calcite, thick slip. q 655-p5 nt Slight depression inside rim. Center core but high fire. Much chaff, some calcite. Lower part coil made, upper part wheelmade. q 668-p15 nt High fire, maybe slightly overfired. Greenish ext + int. Fine chaff, small-medium range inclusions, carbon core. Smoothed on ext but not very smooth. Rim worn. q 759-p7 nt Long narrow tool or implement (such as cord) used to make rope decoration. Med fire. “Exploded” calcite on interior surface. Greenish ext + int due to slip, in section greenish gray. Much sand + fine chaff, gritty texture of section. q 794-p2 nt Med-high fire. Fine chaff some sand. Color of ext yellowish green. Straight sided narrow tool used to make diagonal rope design. q 794-p1 nt Diagonal impressions made with tool with straight sides to make rope decoration. Color of ext greenish yellow. Fine + med chaff. Med orange + white mineral inclusions. Med-high fire. q 412-p1 nt Diagonal finger-size impressions make rope impression. Yellow buff - gray buff - yellow buff, along int + ext of section more yellow than center of section. q 782-p18 nt Light gray carbon core. Relatively little fine chaff. Sand + some larger calcite, med fire. Lighter color slip as clay is redder buff and slip yellow-buff. Carinated ext but not int. q 401-p3 nt Ext + int color brownish (i.e. not usual RC color), high fire, calcite + sand.

Dark gray as is fired in a reducing atmosphere, high fire. q 385-p15 nt CH, med fire, sand + small-med calcite. q 478-p4 nt String cut base of a bowl. Poorly cut and made cause of small lumps of clay on base and surface of body - shows that the production was very fast. Als one lump on inside of base. Little temper. q 477-p1 nt Almost complete tall conical cup with cut base, wet smoothed on ext, heavy wheelmarks on int, self slip. q 479-p14 nt Cut base, not perfectly flat on bottom + lip along one edge from the trimming, i.e. where it wasn’t trimmed well. q 479-p3 nt Base smoother than lower vessel wall, gritty in section from sand, med fire, chaff on the surface. q 478-p6 nt Broken or very poorly made. Rough on ext + int. Much chaff + pebbles, med fire. q 706-p16 nt Med fire, whitish yellow slip, smoother on ext + int, wheelmade but “lumpy” ext (but not int) - potter not skilled with small shapes? q 721-p29 nt Med fire, wet smoothed int + exy, thick slip, sand + small chaff temper. q 565-p4 nt Overfired? ext over rim smoothed, smoothed part is on top of flat rim.

Med fire, slipped on ext + int, chaff, small pebbles + sand. q 238-p1 nt Some chaff + more pebbles, large hole on ext surface. Interior secondarily burnt to just below rim but not ext, so fire must have been inside but not a heavy fire.
