The fragment appears to be from ajar shoulder. The outer surface is ornamented with parallel rows of im- pressions. Junius Bird kindly examined a plasticine impression of this sherd, which he compared with casts of twined baskets oi jutico, a kind of sedge {Scripus sp.) found at Huaca Prieta in Chicama at the lowest level of Cupisnique sherds and in Prcccramic levels (Bird, 1948, fig. 9). He has no doubt that one of these twined baskets was pressed into the wet clay of the vessel from which this sherd came. ANCON ZONED PUNCTATE Four sherds of this type were collected, three with the paste of Guanape Black Plain and one with that of Guanape Red Plain. The exterior sur- faces are polished, a characteristic that serves to distinguish this type from Guanape Zoned Punctate. The only designs present in this small sample are areas of circular or linear punctates bordered by incised lines. In two cases these areas are triangles. The single rim sherd is from a small, black, constricted-mouth jar with direct rim (fig. 71, A). The mouth diameter is cm. An inverted, incised triangle filled with linear punctations is pendent from the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Collier, Donald, 1911-; Martin, Paul S.
