Description by Michael Welch:  #40 One-half handle with a small amount of jar pottery remaining attached on the bottom.  Pottery color is brownish with pinkish red-brick showing through where chipped.  It also has some encrustations and a black core.  Bears a M2T type impression.  This impression is a little harder to identify because a pseudo-inscription was carved into most of the two-winged emblem in modernity.  However, by filling in the pseudo-inscription with a little bit of mud, traces of most everything are still there.  Out of MMST on the top, both of the bottom legs of the Mems are still there, however they have been roughed up in modern times by something.  The last half of the Tau is the only clear letter preserved.  Around three-fourths of the two-winged emblem remains.
