FAIENCE
163
Type IX-1. Massive basins with recurved rim, Fig. 183, no. 23
93. K X A, No. xiii (Fig. 183, 23).
94. K XIV, No. v. Diam., ca. 26 cm.
Type IX-2. Massive rounded bowls (with three legs ?), Fig. 183, no. 24
95. K X A, No. xiii (14-1-500 + 537); Photo. A 2022, 1/2, 2/1. Outside: endless spiral scroll
under rim; outline block-border; tips of petals; rest missing (Fig. 183, 24).
96. K X A, No. xiii. Undecorated.
97. K X A, No. xiii. A long leg (18.2 cm.) with roughly triangular section (4 X 3.5 cm.).
Perhaps from 95 or 96.
Type IX. Miscellaneous fragments
98. K IV A, No. ix. Four fragments ca. 2.5 cm. thick, probably from a bowl.
99. KX A, No. xiii; Photo. A 2173, 3/5. Fragment from bottom of a bowl (not IX-2, 95).
On bottom, a simple lobed rosette with shaded interstices; an outline block-border.
Pl. 47, 1.
100. K XVIII A, No. xii; Photo. A 2173, 2/4. A dd-sign and an ankh-sign, separated by a double
line. Pl. 47, 1.
(j) Type X. Flat-bottomed jug with handle, Fig. 183, no. 25:
Three fragments were identified as having been parts of a handled jug. Two of these
were connected with each other by the pattern, and came from a flat-bottomed jug. The
third fragment presented a bit of rim and the upper part of a handle, with black line
decoration. Perhaps some of the other fragments, here registered under Type XVI, may
also have been from handled jugs, but most of them must have had rounded bottoms.
101. K XIX, No. vii; Photo. A 2173, 3/1, and Photo. A 2175, 3/6. Inside: unglazed. Outside:
body covered with a pattern of overlapping scales, bounded below by two lines on edge
of base, and above by lines and vertical strokes on base of neck (Pl. 47, 1, and 47, 2,
Fig. 183, 25).
102. K XVIII A, No. xii; Photo. C 2193, 1/3. Handle, with herring-bone pattern in black
lines.
(k) Type XI. Flat-bottomed jar, Fig. 183, no. 26:
Two fragments of flat bases were found which, being unglazed inside, certainly belong to
jars or jugs of some sort. I have reconstructed the upper part of one of these by the run of
the outline, but the rim must remain conjectural (cf. Chapter XXII, Stone Vessels, Type
1-2).
103. K II room B (14-3-1481b). No decoration; but if, as seems probable, 1481a belonged to
this jar, then it bore three or four vertical lines of inscription on one side (Fig. 183, 26).
104. K III comp. 5/1 (13-12-412h). No decoration.
(l) Type XII. Pear-shaped jar with thickened rim, Fig. 183, no. 27:
105. K III comp. 5/3 (13-12-929). Eight disconnected fragments of the same ware, and per-
haps of the same jar, were found (see Photo. A 2175, 3/3, 3/5, 4/1, 4/2, 4/4). Design
in compartments including wavy lines, triangles, and bird (?), in solid black. Incised
blue background faience. Pl. 47. 2.
106. K III comp. 4/3 (13-12-490). Fragment of rim.
107. K XVIII A, No. xii; Photo. B 2325, 2/3. Undecorated; had perhaps an inscription (Fig.
183, 27).
