Description by Michael Welch:  #89 One-half to two-thirds jar handle with a small amount of jar pottery remaining on the bottom. Pottery color is brownish with heavy encrustation of chalky limestone and a black core. Bears a type M2D impression. Out of LMLK on the top, most of the initial Lamed and Mem, a trace of the second Lamed and most of the Kaph remain. Out of MMST on the bottom, a trace of the head of the initial Mem remains (possibly a trace of the Shin and Tau remain as well). The two-winged sun disc emblem is pretty complete.
