Description by Michael Welch:  #39 One-third handle with a small amount of jar pottery remaining attached.  On the bottom of the jar pottery are potter's wheelmarks, and well defined finger impressions made by the potter when he connected the handle.  Pottery color is brownish with white grits throughout, a few encrustations, and a black core.  Bears possibly a S2T type impression or a G2B type impression.  Out of SUKH on the top, possibly a part of the Shin and a trace of the Waw remain.  Since there is no picture for the S2T type impression, it makes it that much more difficult to be certain of the proper identification.  The two-winged emblem is seven-eighths complete.  It is a little smaller than most of the other two-winged emblems.  There is a black ink #13 on the bottom from a previous collection.
