The Jorwe Ware of the lower levels of Phase V, with all its characteristic types and painted designs, was deepred in colour and had a shining surface showing resemblance with the Lustrous Red Ware [11.9]. But this was because of the natural outcome of the transition from the Malwa Ware to the Jorwe Ware and there was evidence neither of the true Lustrous Red Ware nor of the stemmed bowl of RANGPUR II C type in the Jorwe Phase at Daimabad or for that matter in any other level. The painted marks or the so-called potter's marks on the Jorwe Ware occur only singly, barring one example, and many of them do not have any parallels in the list of the Indus signs [20.4.1]. The associated wares were the burnished grey ware and the thick coarse handmade ware.
