Notes:   West Lane IV ca. 0.60-0.80 (north section)
Further digging in West Lane.
In north section at a depth of 0.65 to 0.80 we found in an area of loose earth many fragments of a large one handled mug with spouted neck - thin fabric, fine slip, decorated with spiral and flower designs in good purple-red paint. It will make a handsome jug. We have spout with handle. The base has also turned up.
At about the same level 0.65- some apparently LM II sherds are turning up. The large mug I should be tempted to call early LM III of high class but will wait till I see it washed (Later: it looks earlier now washed and stuck together. LM I-II).
