Description by Michael Welch: #103 About one-half jar handle. Pottery color is pinkish red-brick with white and grey grits throughout. Bears a Z2D impression. Out of LMLK on the top, most of the initial Lamed and Mem remain, along with perhaps a trace amount of the second Lamed. Out of ZP on the bottom, only most of the Zayin remains. About one-third to one-half of the two-winged sun disc emblem remains. There are wet-smoothing marks all over the handle with a few smudged wet fingerprints on the inside of the handle, all probably done by the potters making the jars. This particular handle is the pulled type clay. There is a small fracture on the top right inside where the jar was connected. There are also wheel marks made by the potters on the inside of the jar pottery.
