I12 probably Phase 3 and Phase 2d-h (exact part of the Ninevite V period is unclear)
I11 LC3 coarse shapes: q1293-p1 part of jar neck with bright red burnished paint on exterior and interior, probably Uruk Red ware so probably imported but this sherd is a different color red and the examples from the Qraya excavations have a coarser surface texture. Fine wares: q1306-p5 flat base in gray-brown ware, q1306-p3 red-brown fine bowl, q1306-p32 cup yellow-buff near rim and greener below in a ware that is coarser than the usual Simple ware this cup is made out of, it has a lot of sand temper, other shapes: q1311-p1 and -p2 deep bowls with squared rims in a coarse ware but well fired, q1311-p70 body sherd of cooking vessel with triangular shaped depressions on exterior for heat transfer, q1311 green-buff conical cup with simple rim even distribution of color (therefore earlier than ED III), q1311-p4 red brown fine cup with small calcite temper with beaded rim that is undercut on the exterior, q1311-p5 small cup with beaded undercut rim with lightly incised, fine decoration on the exterior.
I12 a feature below the early escarpment (^esc1), few shape sherds but LC3 sherds are clear and fine shapes are probably earlier but their date is not clear

I11 (q1293) -p1 coarse, much chaff and some lithic temper, bright-orange paint on exterior and some traces of paint on interior, restricted neck jar, it is probably an imitation of Uruk Red Ware but not the same color or ware as the Uruk Red wase excavated by us in Qraya.  Phase 3s sherds: -p3 bowl base with slightly convex base with walls rounded near the base (for this shape see J2 f215 q648-4), -p5 small jar with beaded rim. LC Coarse ware shapes: -p6 bowl with pointed rim slanted toward the interior, very smooth tan-orange surface, wide carbon core, -p4 ware similar to -p6 small bowl with narrow flat rim, -p2 jar with rim extended toward interior and exterior. 15 coarse body sherds, both red-brown and buff, 2 buff coarse body sherds with prominent scrape marks on the interior, 1 clear Metallic body sherds and 3 unclear ones, 2 yellow buff body sherds, 1 fine WS ware body sherd, 6 medium buff body sherds that may come from jars, 1 orange budd body sherd that may come from a cup.

I11 (q 1287) ED III types: -p23 square rimmed deep bowl, Rc ware with buff-green slip, -p2 large base with exterior ledge, bottom rough with chaff marks, ware is gray buff with light buff-green slip, chaff, calcite and sand temper, made probably with a coil method with coil marks visible on the interior of the base, it is also possible that these marks are the result of production on a slow wheel, the exterior portion of the base has been cut with a sharp tool  and is slightly undulating, 4 examples of this type base in J6 f200, -p17 jar with folded over rim and interior groove, -p24 slightly concave green bowl base with wheelmarks on lower body wall in FC ware, -p4, -p3 green flat base with wheel marks, -p8, -p9 conical cup with simple rim, light green buff, date unknown but may be LC2: -p10 round sided bowl with slight carination near the top, gray-brown ware with burnished exterior, similar shape found in LC2 but on a larger bowl and in a different ware, -p11 bowl with beaded rim heavily secondarily fired, Ninevite V: -p1 pointed base, -p20 round sided bowl with thin beaded rim undercut below exterior, coarse: -p16 Coba bowl, -p14 round sided bowl, -p14 small red-brown simple rim bowl with carbon core, -p12 bowl with rim slanted toward the interior, carbon core, smoother on exterior than interior, tan-buff slip, -p19 restricted rim jar with well smoothed surfaces, tan, -p5 ring base of a bowl, orange buff slip on exterior only, slow wheel marks on the interior, no carbon core, "exploded" calcite on the interior and in section, -p25 convex base, green-buff, much sub-round chaff and calcite, fine LC3 shapes -p7 tiny bowl, orange-brown interior and red-buff exterior, burnished on interior and exterior, -p15 jar with sharply outturned neck, firing cloud, red-brown, much chaff for such a thin walled shape, calcite.

-ph It is possible that the fills below the earliest escarpment are earlier than ED IIIA in J2 but not as early as the existance of late Ninevite V ceramics. Even in J2 f288 and 289 in k100 are probably late Ninevite V but we do not have as yet a clear transition between these 2 phases.

I11 (q1301) -p3 thick walled coarse jar with much chaff, carbon core and gray-buff slip interior and exterior,smoother on interior than exterior -p1 hole mouth jar used as a cooking pot with thickened rim on interior and exterior, extrior is a light brown but interior completely blackened, no carbon core, much chaff and lithic temper, -p70 body shers with thick dark reddish paint in drips down the exterior, carbon core and medium gray interior. Fine ware -p2 small part of rim of  bowl or cup. Number of coarse body sherds: 41, number of fine buff-green body sherds: 16. In addition 5 body sherds are thick and buff, 2 of these have scraped interiors, 2 others show the juncture between the neck and the body made in 2 separate parts. The construction of jars in separate parts is a characteristic of the jar production process from Ninevite V through the ED III period.
