Handles and Spouts

This category includes sherds/shards with projections, or the remaining projections. Handles can be lug, knob, or strap handles. Spouts are hollow tubes that were attached at the rim. These can have anthropomorphic figures attached to the top of them. If this is so, they are also found under Figurine---Anthropomorphic.
