The sherds of this reconstructed vessel were found at the Seuser site in Rush County in 1970. The vessel is from the Pratt Complex which occurred during the Middle Ceramic period. This pottery is typically cord marked, sometimes smoothed over cord marked, with sand tempering. The decorations around the rim were made by a pointed tool and by pinching the clay. Archeologists filled in the missing pieces of the vessel with plaster.
