Description (summary) 2009-08-27 cJC Flat piece of baked clay with a long rectangular piece of clay attached to its flat surface. It is apparent that the rectangular portion was attached to the flat piece as some scoring can be seen where the object is broken and the flat back piece has detached from the rectangle. Where the rectangle joins the flat piece it has been smoothed while the clay was still wet and the groove is about the size of a finger. The back of the object is not flat and has some impressions in it. The back also appears to be broken along the side without the impressions. One side is preserved completely and the other is broken. The core of the object is gray and the outside is reddish. fAB suggested it may be part of a house model. Similar to q832.4 and q832.2 [Input: T827CJC3.j]
