Of the numerous potsherds recovered along with stone celts no complete shape is available. The pottery is handmade and not well-baked. It shades off into brown, buff and grey, depending upon the nature of clay and the degree of firing. On the exterior the ware is decorated with cord or basket impressions in the form of either parallel or criss-cross lines impressed on the pot with paddle which was wrapped in cord or matting.
