Mortar3561/9 a-b

Clay mortar, or bowl (part a), with a wooden pestle (part b). The bowl's inside surface is black and covered in a linear pattern: two crossed lines, with numerous concentric connecting lines running between the crossed lines. The clay has a dark stain over the upper surface and edge. The underside is unglazed or stained; the clay appears as a mottled pattern in brown and black. The pestle is hourglass shaped and made of plain light brown wood. There are two incised lines around the centre. (Note: one section at the rim of the bowl was broken and repaired.)
