Description by Michael Welch: #105 Full handle with a large amount of jar pottery remaining, even more
was there but one side was broken off in modernity. Pottery color is red-brick showing brown where freshly chipped, with a black core with white and gray grits throughout. There is a depression in the pottery in the middle of the handle which on the inside has appeared to break through the wall of the jar pottery at creation time of the jar. Perhaps this jar would have leaked here if it held wine. The jar pottery is also pretty thin in thickness in this area. Bears an H2D impression. Out of
LMLK on the top, only part of the Mem remains. Out of HBRN on the bottom, part of the Beth and most of the Resh and Nun remain. About one-third of the two-winged sun disc emblem remains, including most of the three rays of the sun on the bottom and a good start of the center sun orb. The handle is pretty much covered in calcium carbonate and at the bottom has some grass roots remnants remaining.
