Typology
Description	Amongst the moulded-rim jars and bowls illustrated by Deffressinge (1986) are several where the fabric is described as heavily micaceous with '.. dégraissants .. très gros'. One jar ( `op.cit.` fig.3, 2) apparently contained a pig bone. The report also illustrates a number of Dressel 1 amphoras, probably of both variant 1a and 1b, but their association with the coarse wares is unclear. The rather poor drawings and descriptions do not allow any firmer conclusions to be drawn from this material.
