(2) The polychrome painted vessels lie completely outside of the ceramic
development of cultures I and II and seem to have been imported from a more
distant culture-center. They consist of marginal pieces of dishes without profiling
and the fragment of a vessel with a high, steep lip. Some of them are made
of gray-brown, porous clay with a yellow, finely-smoothed slip and dead black
and dark-red ornamentation (plate 32, fig. 4; plate 33, fig. 2). Similar to this
is the fragment shown in plate 33, fig. 3, except that in this instance the ground
clay is dull. The two remaining fragments (plate 33, figs. 1 and 4) are of greenish-
white clay. In figure 4 the colors are violet, light-gray, and reddish-yellow, laid
on very thin. In figure 1 the white is not the result of painting, but is due to a
deposit of salts, which often appears on the surface of antique vessels. The deco-
rating colors are black and red on a ground of greenish-yellow clay.
