Pottery



The pottery, although not prolific, mirrors that found by Schmidt in 1928. There are a few sherds with coarse white slip panels and polychrome paint, some small fine black polished bowls with flat or disc bases and a very few incised or impressed grey ware sherds. The great majority of pottery is plain, table ware being predominantly red, kitchen ware grey. There is a small repertoire of forms. The complete and closely dated ceramic corpus is distinctive. It is not yet possible to ascertain changes in the ceramics during the short life of the city.
The only recognisable import is a thumb-nail sized rim sherd from what appears to be an Attic vessel.
