| Comment | like in the previous period, the pottery had sand temper, good firing, light color, painted decoration; differences to earlier: finer, almost always burnished, more varied forms, color more carefully applied, more complex motifs, that were obtained by using a liquid brown color applied with brushes; motifs: straight, thin, regular lines as mesh, chevrons or triangles in standardized banded patterns, applied to various parts of the vessel, but less attention was paid to the structure of it; The vessels were probably bigger than before; a few fragments of brown and black burnished pottery was found, often decorated with white filled incisions or punctuation marks; a small amount of less distinctive ceramic production (cooking-, storage pots) was found; |
