Notes: The photographed object (1930,1213.316) is a glazed pot that cannot be the vessel described (and drawn) in Woolley's field card, as it is much too late in date. The field card and find spot describe an Ubaid pot; the photographed object is a Neo-Babylonian or Persian pot. British Museum database holds a question mark after the field number designation.
