### [v1.c16.s6.t1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c16.s6.t1.3)

The whole range of the industry is turned on the wheel except a few handmade specimens from the earliest level of PANDU RAJAR DHIBI. The fabric is medium, though a coarse variety occurs in the earliest and the degenerate phases. The clay is indifferently levigated and tempered with fine sand. In most pots a slip is applied on both sides except in vases which are treated with slip on the exterior and up to the neck on the interior. Some sherds have achieved a smooth and shining surface due to burnishing. Firing under different conditions has given a few pots a completely black interior and red exterior, while others are partly black and partly red on both sides; the latter occur in larger frequency.
