| Many sherds from thick-walled late Roman ribbed storage vessels; also small carinated bowls in burnished black ware, and large amphora spikes. The open section at the edge of the mound features brick structures, both in mud-brick (various coloured clays as at Firin) and fired brick, and stratified deposits. Transparent glass bottle neck fragments were noted. A pink granite column base lies near the centre of the northern part of the kom; a fair amount of limestone chippings were observed in the immediate vicinity. In the fields near the eastern edge of site are some more limestone pieces and a large piece of unsmoothed greywacke-stone; both very weathered. | Photograph by Neal Spencer,
