14.9.38 Pinkish-buff clay with brick red paint. The exterior surface has a band at rim above a spiral with linking lines with small petal-like crescents between them. Inside, the surface is red.
14.9.42 Pinkish-buff clay. Exterior surface has poor, dull black paint in a pattern of three linked spirals between broad bands. Interior surface is reserved except for an irregular streak of red top to bottom. No finished edges.
14.9.45 Bottom of false neck has a broad red band. Shoulder has two broad red bands with several narrower bands in between them. The body is squat, with same pattern as the shoulder. Decoration is brick-red on pinkish-buff ground. Smaller band of red near and on the edge of the base, which is undecorated and slightly convex in shape (?). Blackening around hole where true neck has broken off suggests usage as a lamp.
14.9.49 Brick red paint on pinkish-buff clay. On the exterior surface is a band around the rim and one just below, but broader. Design is a little unclear but perhaps shows the heads and shoulders of two men (perhaps in a chariot ?) wearing clothing patterned with dots. On the underside is a red band around rim leaving the rest reserved.
27.3.3 Fine thin fabric of pinkish-buff ground. Inside is purple/black with traces of red bands. Rim flares out and on it is a black band with two thin red bands. Below this are vertical bars in two groups, some longer. One broad black band then three narrow red bands. Five pronged triangular lines radiating from base. Two bands on foot and three on base.
61.6.1.6 Small rough bowl with spout and three feet at base (but it is unable to support itself). Pinkish-buff fabric, unpainted. Dark red spot on interior.
