Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2010-09-19 mKB On reviewing the ceramics from this feature I have concuded that it is Mittani not Middle Assyrian. There are no MA sherds in the feature and there are a number of typical Mittani sherds including a painted bowl with dark brown paint over a buff background. Jar with a wide flat rim, typical Mittani carinatd bowl. 2 earlier sherds are mixed with these Mittani pottery from the ED III period. This ia a usual pattern because the strata below are heavily ED III. [Input: U919MKB2.J]
