Only 3 handles were found; two adjacent handles are blank & the other one has a Z4CI impression (Note--the line drawing of Plate 18:1 shows this configuration although the photo appears to show the stamped handle between the 2 blank ones).

From "Timnah:  A Biblical City in the Sorek Valley" by George L. Kelm & Amihai Mazar (note--the photo image is mirrored in this publication so that the patch appears to the left of the center handle--the orientation you see below is the way the jar actually looks):

Note:  A black-&-white version of this jar photo appears in: Impression photo from "Qedem:  Monographs of the Institute of Archaeology 42" by Amihai Mazar & Nava Panitz-Cohen, distributed by The Israel Exploration Society:

"But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, & thou our potter."--Isaiah 64:8
