Definition 2008-08-24 mM tablet [Input: S824MM.j]
Description (summary) 2008-08-24 mM Unepigraphical school tablet(?). This object was obtained by squeezing a ball of clay whithin the two hands. As a result of this process, it has a slightly flat obverse and convex reverse. In addition, the obverse is partly irregular due to some extra squeezing of the clay. The circular shape, the lack of inscriptions, and the fact that it is rather thick suggest that this piece may be a school tablet. The obverse has a set of parallel scratches due to the pick, and two shallow holes in random position, also due to the pick impressing dirt impurities in the moist clay when the object was excavated. From the brake it is possible to ascertain that the clay is not well refined, presenting whitish impurities. Some ancient fingerprints are still visible on both sides of the object.
