POTTERY

411

Type W. S. R. IV and Db. W. IV. The form appears to be familiarly Egyptian, but a
search of the publications, and the records of our expedition, fail to yield more than a few
examples (ware not described).1
Dynasty XVIII pots of similar form differ markedly in the shape of the base.2 At
Kerma, the examples belong to the later Egyptian Cemetery, as the greater part were
found in K XVIII and K XXXV. None was found in the Nubian Cemeteries.

The medium sized jars, R. W. IX and X, are of ordinary good red ware. They are too
few in number to give much information. It may be noted that R. W. IX is related to
R. W. IV, while R. W. X finds its counterpart in W. S. R. IX and K .W. VII. The jar,
R. W. X-2, is of special interest because found in the sacrificial corridor of K IV. About
