3.2.5. FABRICS
| A1a | - Iron rich clay with considerable amounts of sand temper, relatively coarse and poorly fired. It contains frequent medium-to-fine quartz grains and less frequent coarse ones. White calcareous inclusions of varying sizes, some fine-to-medium red and occasional black particles are visible. Medium hard fabric.48 - Generally firing to a pale red, red or red-brown color (oxidizing atmospheres). Gray core can be present especially in thicker sections. Surface can be pale red, brown-red or red in color. - Storage and transport containers, cooking ware, and table ware. - Early second century until the mid- to late-fourth century. Nr. Ostraka: 512 |
| A2a | - A fine version of A1a. The fabric has abundant mineral inclusions, with quartz grain particles, smaller than A1a fabric. Texture is denser and the hardness is slightly higher than A1a. - Fired colors range from light red and brown to reddish-brown, sometimes with a gray to brown-gray core. Surface can be pale pink-beige, brown-red or red in color. - Small bowls, large jars and kegs. - Third–fourth centuries. Nr. Ostraka: 21 |
| A1b | - Similar in composition to A1a with rounded quartz and white calcareous inclusions which are usually numerous and conspicuous. The reducing atmosphere increases the hardness. - Fired black, gray or sometimes dark reddish-gray colors in reducing atmospheres. Surface is gray in color. - Large jars and kegs. - Early second century until the mid- to late-fourth century. Nr. Ostraka: 409 |
| A2b | - A fine version of A1b. Same characteristic of A1b but with smaller size temper. - Fired gray in a heavily reducing atmosphere. Surface is gray in color. - Large jars and kegs. - Third–fourth centuries. Nr. Ostraka: 19 |
| A5 | - Variant of group A. Iron rich clay, with a larger quantity of white, green, and yellow particles. Coarser texture, more porous. - Overfired purple-brown and gray in color. The surface is purple usually with a thick white or cream slip. - Jugs, kegs, and storage jars. - Third–fourth centuries. Nr. Ostraka: 62 |
| A11 |
- Dense kaolinitic
