The pottery found at the site were in an early stage of hand crafting, of the coarse variety, in steel-grey, dull red, brown, and buff colours with mat prints at the bottom; they were in the shape of bowl, vase and stem. [3] The antiquities did not reveal any signs of burials sites. [10] Late Kot-Diji type pots were found belonging to Period Ib.
A clothes washer grey water system is sized to recycle the grey water of a one or two family home using the reclaimed water of a washing machine (produces 15 gallons per person per day). [20] It relies on either the pump from the washing machine or gravity to irrigate. This particular system is the most common and least restricted system.
