Comment the most common type of pottery was an orange, unburnished, grit-tempered coarse ware, mostly medium-sized jars with round bases and short, wide necks; sometimes they had thin walls (less than 3 mm), vertical handles and little knobs on the shoulder, sometimes they had finger and nail impressions on the joint between shoulder and neck.
