Context (Found together / assemblage)
Found stored in same bag as Z 43343 H; however, these sherds are unmarked. They may belong with that IDNO, but as it could not be ascertained with certainty, they have been given a TEMP number. Contextual information from that record has tentatively been used to populate this new record.
