The vessels in the concerned region are small, and the absence of medium and large vessels suggests that they were used as table ware. The range of shapes is limited, the most predominant being the bowl, though such forms as the saucer/lid, bowl/dish-on-stand and small globular pot also occur. The bowl has a convex, bulging, bluntly-carinated, concave-carinated or converging side. The lid is shallow and has a flaring side. The bowl/dish-on-stand has a cylindrical stem.
