Stoneware Crucible Body Sherds

Thirty-two ceramic body sherds of varying thicknesses and colors from multiple crucibles. The crucibles are likely made of a crude stoneware with a coarse paste. The sherds are likely from triangular-mouthed vessels with circular bases. Many of the fragments are slightly blackened from use and some have encrusted residue on their interior surfaces. The sherds do not mend and more than one vessel is represented.
